i have a 85 hp, 76 evinrude model #: 85693D <br />serial #: J0003119 or so i'm told, that i was thinking about buying. could you tell me what it is worth, with prop and controls without installation. also, i'd like to find a newer model(johnson or evinrude) with power trim in decent shape that's not extremely expensive, might you know where to find one? i've looked at all the local places and got nothing. i live in south central pennsylvania. One more, my boat says the max hp is 135. is it safe to put a 135 on it? i heard that you should only put about 80% of the max on any given boat, but if i got a good deal...can it handle it, or is it too dangerous? it's a 1978 18' bonita <br /><br />thanks, <br />geaz
