I have an opportunity to buy a used boat, motor, and trailer at a good price. It is powered by a 1994 Evinrude 225hp. The price is only a good one if the engine is dependable. I haven't heard many good things about Evinrude or Johnson and wish it was a Yamaha. But it is what it is.

Any opinions are welcome and I look forward to reading them.

Thanks,
Mark

Re: An Opportunity to Buy

what is the model # of the engine, if it begins with "F", keep moving down the road.
