2000 Yamaha high trust 9.9 HP kicker question

[icefisherman]

I am considering purchassing used 2000 Yamaha 9.9 HP , 4 stroke, long shaft, electric start, high trust motor.

It says manufactured in 09/99 on it but apparently it is 2000 year model (?!?)

What is good price for such motor at this time of the year? What would you consider "deal I should not miss" on it?

 

Cheers,

I can tell you that a 2006 8hp high thrust yamaha will set you back about $3400.

Thanks Taper,

 

waooooo....So would price of arround $1100-$1200 be considered "great buy" then?

I'm no expert, but it seems like that woud be the going range for a "newer" small 9.9 outboard. For example there's a 2002 Yami on E-Bay with a buy it now of $1299. If you know who you're buying it from, that's a bonus for sure.
