Forgot to mention...the Yamaha 350 arrives on its own *steel*
shipping skid...you can see it peeking out at the bottom of the box.
With packaging, I'll bet that engine is close to 1000 pounds.
My guess is about 804 lbs with a 25" shaft.


Plus packaging.....



Reggie tries "so hard" to be relevant here. I'll bet that "packaging"
(steel skid plus heavy cardboard box plus inner packing materials)
brings the weight up to close to 1,000 pounds.

Whoops...already posted that!

Harry,

Oh I thought you said "I'll bet that engine is close to 1000 pounds".

I didn't know you said "I'll bet that engine, skid and packaging is
close to 1000 lbs.

I stand corrected.
