8 Steps For Buying A Quality Used Outboard Motor

Tips For Buying A Used Outboard Boat Motor

As outboard motor prices continue to skyrocket buying a used motor can save a person a lot of money. There's good used outboards out there and there's not so good outboards out there. The not so good used outboards could cost you the same price as a new motor once the repairs are made after purchasing. Below are tips to help you get the most for your money.

1) Inspect the prop shaft to make sure it isn't bent. This can easily happen on a motor that has either a stainless steel or aluminum prop. To check for a bent prop shaft spin the propeller with your hand and look at the end of the propeller hub. There should be absolutely no wobble. Even on a smaller motor this will be a $300 or more repair.

"I have been waterfowl hunting since I was 13. It's a sickness, which i'm not trying very hard to cure. I found your site just a month, or so, ago, and am enjoying it very much. I hope you keep up the great articles and videos, and update the site as often as possible. I've read, and re-read every page on here, and like I said, I'm loving what you have here!"

"The info you guys have built up on here is priceless. I got hooked on ducks and geese two years ago and don't know a whole lot about hunting techniques or strategies. This year I have had limited hunting outings as I'm in the military and been deployed allot, but using some of your suggestions, I have already seen improvements to my kill #'s."
