Advice on buying used outboard
Posted: Tue Jun 01, 2004 5:04 am
Hello list,
I could really use some advice from you Chrysler fans. I have a C22
that I sail on the Black Sea, in Romania. I am now looking for a
decent outboard motor for entering/leaving harbor, etc.
I am searching for a used, since new ones are over my budget at this
point. What size should I be looking at? Is 6-10 hp optimal for this
size boat? And what brand would you recommend? I know this is often
a personal choice, but I would be curious what kind of engines you
guys have? Maybe you had a particular good/bad experience with an
engine that you want to share. Is it true that older engines
(70's-80's) are sometimes a better deal than newer ones?
Thanks,
stefan
