Ranger520vx Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 Friend of mine is looking for a good outboard for 1987 18 1/2 ft. Champion. He needs motor and controls.
fishinwrench Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 I have this one. Has a 150 decal on the cowling but it is a 235 (see model# plate). Was rebuilt 3-4 years ago by one of the Marina's at Truman supposedly. Has good compression and runs great. Comes with a 4-blade 26p Renegade prop. I just recently took it in on trade. The boat it is on is only rated for a 150 so this bad boy has to go to a proper home. 2500.00 for engine and controls. or 2000.00 for engine only. Trade-in considered.
fishinwrench Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 Also will have this one ready to go in a month or so.
fishinwrench Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 Here is yet another one.... This one needs some serious refreshing but the powerhead and lower unit are good. I gave the customer an estimate and he almost went into cardiac arrest. Pretty sure he'd sell it very reasonably but it does need about 2k in ignition and fuel system work.
fishinwrench Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 And then there is this one... But boy I'd really have to stick it in your a$$ on this one because if it goes then I don't get to go fishing for awhile. But hey.... Everything I own is for sale ?? Daryk Campbell Sr, cheesemaster and terryj1024 3
fishinwrench Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 Also have a 1989-90 Evinrude 175 XP coming soon, but I haven't had a chance to check it out fully yet.
Ranger520vx Posted April 10, 2017 Author Posted April 10, 2017 Thx wrench I bet that Champion isn't rated for a 235. Do you have any idea what you are going to want for the XR2. Also how much for the 175 XP and do you have the controls for it also.
fishinwrench Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 Somewhere in the neighborhood of 6k when it's all done. Will have a 15 month full warranty. I have controls for everything.
fishinwrench Posted April 10, 2017 Posted April 10, 2017 Somewhere in the neighborhood of 6k when it's all done. Will have a 15 month full warranty. I have controls for everything. The 18'10" Champion will take the 235. It actually doesn't weigh any more than a 150, just has quite a bit more torque. It is actually a 2.6 liter XP (The high performance version of the 235). No hole shot worries with this beast.
Ranger520vx Posted April 10, 2017 Author Posted April 10, 2017 Thanks wrench I will pass this info on to him. I'm not sure how much he is looking to spend he just ask me to keep an eye open for one and I knew you had motors at times. Once again thanks.
