Tohatsu outboard. What's it worth?

[MAJOR HAVOC]

I'm planning on selling it, and wondering if anyone might have a good idea:

I've got a 1996 40 HP Tohatsu. 2 cylinder, with controls. One SS prop and the OEM prop as well.

Motor's in excellent shape overall.


What do you think I could ask for it?

c'mon guys, I know there's a lot of folks in the biz here...

how 'bout it?

What's fair-market value for this thing?

Thanks again.

I wish I knew more about those outboards. I could take a guess and say $1200.

Depending on what options it will be around the $1000 mark plus or minus a hundred or two.

$1200 sounds about right to me, too. :)

Probably around $1,600 - $1,800 depending on market for the 3 cylinder model and $1,200 for the 2 cylinder model. That is actually a little generous for the 2 cylinder. The 3 cyl is much faster, most had power trim. smoother. They shared the same block with the 50 with a couple of minor internal parts changes. A very dependable, quick little motor.
If it is in a area without any other motors it may be harder to sell. Tohatsu also makes the Nissan and some small motors for Mercury. It also shares some parts with Yamaha.

if you can find 40 50hp Nissan orTohatsu triple for 1600-1800
w/ carbs I'll take 10 units, no power t&t :cool:
