Spinoff, found a 19ft boat that looks real clean but they robbed the motor off of it for something else.

Anyone know what a 150 outboard is costing with these inflated prices right now?

About $15k listed price for a Suzuki/Yamaha. Plus controls and mounting.

Tohatsu is a rebranded Honda and I've seen them listed around $10-$11k. I think that includes all the controls as well.

I’d probably just fill it with MarineTek if it isn’t major.


I might end up going that route for the screw holes if it's incredibly expensive. I've just seen enough "handy man" personal work on used boats where I'm willing to pay to have it done right and look like it matches the hull surrounding it.

I mean I've seen a lot of comical shitty redneck engineering.

Fiberglass work is expensive as hell..

That Will cost you a couple grand at minimum just for the glass work.

Fiberglass is easy on flat surfaces. Curves and corners are for the pros.

Haven't bought a 150 lately. But we recently (within the past year) bought two Mercury 115's for $12k each, and a Mercury 250 Pro XS for $21k.

How long was your wait for the motors?

The wait on the 250 was a little over 12 months.

The dealer already had some 115's on order, so the wait was only about 6 months.

The same dealer told me a few weeks ago that the current delivery times on the larger motors is 54-74 weeks.
