I'll enquire. It'll be a 225HO which would be mental on a 6.5.

If I was home I'd have bought it, put it on my 5.5, sold the 115 and bought a 4x4 with the change!

Perhaps the owner used the Ribnet Depreciation Calculator. Give it another month and he'll be offering a grand to anyone that'll take it away.

Well i actually think this shows how much we are normally robbed when buying a new outboard.chr-st you can buy a brand new car for 6 grand.But i do realise it would look pretty stupid on the back of a searider or Ospray
