compare Nissen to Evinrude outboard

[charleston_sailor]

I lost my RIB and am going to get a simple inflatable. Problem is that the 1989 9.9hp Evinrude is too much. Fellow at my marina wants to swap his 1995 5hp Nissen for my 9.9 Evinrude. What say you?...even swap or does he fork over some green my way? Tell me what you think.

Re: compare Nissen to Evinrude outboard

Howdy Charleston. nadaguides.com says that the Nissan is worth a bit more than your Evinrude.<br /><br />That Nissan is a single. I would be more inclined to look for a 4 to 8hp OMC or Merc twin to swap for, just for the smoother operation.<br /><br />Good luck.<br />JB
