my father gave me a 1915 Evinrude "rowboat motor" in excellent condition and runs great. Does anyone know what it is worth? <br />The model # is A-53361

Awww... it's all about the $$ huh? I'd just keep it, put it up on my wall, have it bronzed perhaps...

actually its not going anywhere...my dad doesn't know how much it is worth and he thought it would be a good idea to find out...he bought it in 1977 for $300.

Re: 1915 evinrude

patkamg I think this was a good post and question! brianmerc usually has good answers: But mabe you caught him/her on a bad day! If I came across a 1915 OB I'd want to know if I should use it or donate it to a museum! And yes the $ bucks are a interesting side effect! But it wouldn't matter on the choice I made. In a few years that motor will be a 100 years old.. I havent checked Ebay as steelespike said to do. Mabe there are thousands out there?? But I would think anything close to a 100 years old would be worth keeping.. opps now I'm talking about my wife :) <br />Happy Boating<br />Link

go to www.aomci.org and they can probably tell you more. Also could you please post some pics of it? I would love to see a real pic of a motor that old.
