I’m in the same bote...😁
I have my boat for sale in the classifieds and it needs the top end rebuilt. It is possible to just fix a hole or two with the two strokes but to each their own.

"One of the cylinders needs replaced" noted. Someone let me know when they figure out how to do this on a Mercury v6 2smoke.

One of my favorite outboards ever made but it sounds like it needs a whole powerhead to me.


What kinda money we talking to make it turn key again

Powerhead itself is $4,500-5k. Plus whatever shops labor to replace it. Any good shop is going to flush the oil system, rebuild the fuel system and service the drive. Probably somewhere in the neighborhood of $8k said and done on the engine depending on where you take it

A cool boat none the less.

Here is a perfect example of an older boat being worth what the motor is worth. And since the motor is basically in need of a rebuild, well........ the boat ain’t worth much. One could easily have 10 grand into a $5000 boat very quickly.

So it's got a dead cylinder no big deal just rebuild it but with a dead cylinder on a 150 don't think 4500 is no Steel since you got to fix the motor you're only buying the boat

You have the knowledge to rebuild it yourself you could do it for five or six hundred dollars just to fix it but if you want to bore it and all new Pistons make it right then you're talkin 1200 1300 in parts, if it's a 2.0 steel bore motor

I've got a 2.4L powerhead I'll let go for $750 if someone wants this...might be a deal if one can get it for $3000 or so and the rest of it is clean.
