Looking for advice on whether or not to bump up the size of my motor on my 15 ft grumman jon.
I currently have a 2 stroke 15 hp merc which runs great, not sure what the year is seems to be late 90s I honestly don't know though.
I found an '83 2 stroke 25 hp Johnson w/ controls on craigslist within driving distance. The seller is asking $900. The guy claims it runs great and that he's had it for 20 years.
So I guess I have 4 questions. Answers to any of them would be appreciated. Thanks
1) What do you think is a good price to offer for the Johnson?
2) Do you think it is worth it to upgrade for the extra HP even though it is an older motor?
3) Can anybody tell what year that merc is?
4) How much do you think I could sell the merc for if I did end up buying the Johnson?
