Yammy 150 vmax - offers

Yamaha 150hp V-MAX 1998 Model Duoprop

This engine has had water in the oil and consequently seized. The block is strippe down so you can see the damage.

Before the water intake the engine was in mint condition with only about 150 hours use (if that).

All the cowlings are unmarked and the gearbox has never even touched the bottom. The props are also as good as new and cost to buy just those new I am told is about £1200

All the electrics including guages etc are all with it aswell.

Could be re-built or used as spares.

I have had offers already so if you are interested let me know.

I'm sorry but the props band new cost as follows (prices from Yamaha USA):

65N-45941-00-00 S/S 14X25 FRONT $ 529.29
65N-45943-00-00 S/S 13X25 REAR $ 424.74

and

The TRP gearcase barnd new $ 4,320.00

Your engine costs more than 800 or 900 pounds

Any way I am interested for TRP gear case and the props.

What's the deal on those two??

If you do break and sell in bits, could i have the tilt electronic thingy that sends the info to the dial on what trim is fore and aft?

Couldn't for the life of me remember what it is called!!!

Yer mine gave up already on the new Optimax... under warrenty of course, but not a good thing for a 15hr old outboard!

One of the bad things with all these gismos is that they don't last in the salt water unfortunately

from the various strories I hear, I don't think that they are actually intended to be used in salt water.

hi there we are interested in the egnie but can you explain how water got in the
oil and is it sea water?

Can we have a break down on the acutal damage caused?

thank you

Errr....I could be wrong but I'd be very surprised if it's still for sale.

Look at the date of the post!
