What's it worth?

I've got a 1999 90hp 2 stroke Yamaha on my Duracraft that's in excellent mechanical/appearance condition. I'm second owner, rarely get to use it and first owner sold it to me because he wasn't using it. It does have trim/tilt and is a premix motor. I've had it about 10 years. I'm thinking about trading up in hp to another 2 stroke Yamaha. What is my 90 worth?
Tincan, where you at? I bet you would know to the penny!

I'm assuming, because it's a premix motor, it's a C90. NADA says around $2500 for that motor.
I've seen your rig. I know the motor is pristine. But I don't recall all the details of the rigging. If there is an hour meter on the boat, to show how few hours on the motor, that would increase the value. I also have to assume, because you're looking at another 2 stroke Yamaha, you're selling just the motor, without the controls. My guess is if a dealer had that motor they would be asking between $3000 and $3500.

If Tin Can says so then it is so. Period.

Yes, and your numbers are spot on! Thanks TC

Rocket, after thinking your situation over for several hours, If you'll pay me a mere $100 I'll come to your house, pull that motor off of your boat, and dispose of it for you.
