That's basically a weed eater motor. air cooled 2 stroke, a little loud
although it exhausts under water thru the prop, lasts forever and very lite
weight. That price seems a little high as they are/were about 300 new.

Hi,

I just bought a 8' dingy that I'll use near shore. I'm looking for a
used 3 to 6 hp outboard, my budget is around $150 to $300. There seem
to be a lot of brands out there, Johnson, Mercury, Susuki, etc. can
someone give me some pointers? I saw in the local ad. on a 3.0
gamefisher for $250. I quick search in this group says that it was
made by Tanaka (I don't know if that makes any difference.) Also, is
gamefisher no longer being serviced?

thanks
