is this a good deal

Ive just been offered a 1999 15hp Yamaha 2 stroke for £650 does this sound about right for this engine.
Engine starts effortlessly on the first pull every time, only negatives for me are there is a pair of dolphins installed which i will have to take off and there is a crack in the hood where it has been dropped

Well if it's clean, rounded cowl design and in excellent running order double the price and it's still a reasonable deal! With the hood damage etc it's still worth more than your paying...and from family too

tut tut how can you live with yourself! Only kidding

Very well done.
