Price check on tohatsu

[tightstripes]

I'm looking to buy this boat but was wondering what you guys thought about the price. it's a 2000 70 hp tohatsu outboard (he assured me that there is very few hours on it) on a 1974 17' proline cc. The guy is very firm with his price at $4500. Ad is below.

Also, how are tohatsu motors in general?


17 feet Proline center console with 2000 70 HP Tohatsu (the motor was purchased new from XXXX Marine in 2001). Very low hours used only twice or maximum three time for season. Boat is completed with fish finder/depth finder, compass, VHF radio, bigle pump, two batteries. The motor runs great and is profesionaly maintained and winterized every season. The motor is oil injected, has electric power trim and uses very litlle gas. The boat is in very good shape and very nice looking with nice big flare and very nice to ride.

Re: Price check on tohatsu

Tohatsu motors are as good as any, and better than many. If you like the price, get the boat. Seems to have enough gear and accessories to justify the cost. See if you can get a sea trial before committing to buying, and test out everything.
