Anyways if I saved up to close to $600 for a motor you would think I
should be able to get a decent running outboard in the neighborhood of
25-40 Hp? Correct?


If you take your time and look, yeah - that's doable. You'd have an
engine 10 to 12 years old in decent shape - might need a little work
to get running properly.


Well I think getting a 10Hp decent runner should be no problem at a
decent price. I probably pick one of these up in the coming weeks. I
have found plenty online.

If I get to the 20-40Hp range the prices jump real quick. I will keep
looking.

Any Suggestions on Marinas are greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestions I will keep looking and keep you all
