installation of an outboard costs?

[bluebrownie]

bought a used motor from a guy, putting it on my boat... 90 hp...outboard... with powertrim...i don't have a switch for the power trim... retiring the 72 johnson.... so the marina has to install the switch , connect steering, and mount the motor... i will already have my old motor off it... what should i expect to spend for that... ? marina is saying 250.00 ... does that sound right or within the ballpark?

I don't know if thats high or low as I did my 150 myself , but I'd say reasonable. I rented an engine hoist for a day, $35 and bought mounting hardware, so I probably spent $60.
I think 250 is a decent price.

that does not seem that bad... at $80 or so an hour that's a lot done for 3 hours work...

that is the average cost for that here.
