      Hey y’all, new to the site. I have around 40 outboard motors in my garage. Mostly neptunes, green Mercs, and a handful of Johnson’s. what is the best way to market and sell these things. I’ve had them on CL but just selling one at a time is taking forever. Thought you all might have a better idea. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks, cool site!

        Hi Mdog, in what part of the country are situated? Maybe bring them all to one of the club meets, there is generally a "swap & sell" at all of our meets. Check the "upcoming events" page" on this site for meet info.
        Or, how about just joining the club and start having some fun with all of that old "iron" 😀

            I saw your classified ad, since you’re not trying to get rich, I’d try ebay. Lots of exposure and I think fair priced motors sell pretty good.

                Yeah I saw your list. You will get little to no attention without at least a list. Pictures help even more.

                    Merc dog,
                    The idea of selling them here is the fact that these folks care about them & most will get fixed up & run again. To be accurate include the brand, hp, serial number ( to tell how old it is) & model number & if it is complete assembly including propeller & remote fuel tank to go with it. I’m interested in what you have too please,
                    Jeff jeff.50@cox.net.
