bfishn Posted March 3 Posted March 3 1974 16'6" Falcon HAS A ROTTEN TRANSOM. 1988 Yamaha 130ETLG 2-stroke carbed outboard, rebuilt in '04 - good, strong motor 2004 Nationwide tandem trailer For a restore project or use the motor, trailer and accys on another hull. The boat transom is soft and noticeably flexes. It's sat unused in my carport for the last 10 years, and it's time to go. I personally overhauled the 130 Yamaha in 2000 with .040 Wiseco pistons, Boyzen reeds, and OEM bearings, gaskets etc when I was service manager at a local Yamaha dealer. I drained the carbs and fogged the cylinders when I parked it. Strong, dependable motor. Bought the trailer new, it has low mileage tires and a minor dent in the R (steel) fender. Complete dual graph/tri location/dual pedal, 24V/60lb Pinpoint networked TM system w/GPS, maps, and depth/creek/shore tracking. 25G shad tank w/pump and oxygen flowmeter (I'm keeping the oxy bottle for my torch). Two Anchormates w/20lb MK claws. Hydraulic trim tab system, switched at helm. Rod holders. XL aereated livewell. Rod & gear storage. Bimini top. 3B OB charger. SS prop Everything was working fine when I parked it. Priced to sell, as-is, no warranty. Clean title on trailer and detailed bill of sale. To help convey my confidence in the motor, last weekend I ran a compression test, then re-fogged it. 130, 134, 130, 128. When I bought the motor, the CDI ignition module had been robbed. The CDI was $900 at the time, but we happened to have a blown V6 of the same vintage with a complete ignition system, so that's what I used. The only drawback is the oil alarm circuit was incompatible, but since that only alarms for oil levels in the reservoirs, it wasn't a problem for me. I now have the correct new OEM stator & trigger and a good used CDI box that goes with it should you want to restore it to stock and regain the alarm function. This vintage of Yamaha was like an early '70s Maytag, normal care and they go forever. I'd recommend replacing the fuel hoses and WP impeller before firing it up. Safe to assume the batteries are toast. I ran four group 27s under the helm for the Pinpoint and accys and a single, dedicated OB group 24 under the stern deck. The transom is flat and small, and the 'glass is thick, so it should be an "easy" fix as transoms go if you went that route. It's a heavy hull with a Hanby's keel guard. $2,500.00 OBO. If you want to look at it I'm only home weekends and after 4:30 on weekdays. Bella Vista, Arkansas. PM me and I'll respond asap. Added: The accessories were all added as accessories, not OEM, so easy to retrofit to another hull. Quillback, snagged in outlet 3 and fishinwrench 3 I can't dance like I used to.
