NADA puts the motor at $200.00. But they are always low. With the boat and motor in good shape I would expect somewhere between $1000-$1500.

Re: IDEA OF WORTH

RB, you are making a mistake using the NADA guides. He's asking the price of his entire rig, you gave the NADA price of just the engine. An engine attached to a boat which actually floats and doesn't leak too bad will always be worth more.<br /><br />Make sure if you value something that you value the entire thing, not just one part.<br /><br />Remember, its NADA guides, meaning its only a guide anyway. Nothing written in stone! :D

I think that is what RB did, WITF.<br /><br />I agree; $1,000 to $1,500 for the whole rig.
