2007 Merc 3.5hp 4 stroke

[FLEX ROD]

So I found a mer 3.5hp 4 stroke , it's a 2007 what would be a fair price?

I  have a 18' square back is this a over kill?

All suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. 

Thanks FLEX

No, I ran one on a 16 foot sportspal wide transom and it was fine.  I had the Tohatsu version, but the Merc 3.5 is the same motor.  I think it will be fine on an 18 foot square back in my opinion, and it will go like hell too LOL.  The only concern I could see is if you have one of those really narrow little square sterns, and even then I’d guess it’d be ok as they aren’t very heavy.

Thanks for the info porkpie, I have a 1 year old sportpal with a nice wide stern.

You are correct that it should go like he'll, I may actually get a chance to see the whole lake finally after 5 years. It's not a big lake but I was using my minkota  electric so speed was not really a option. 

Any clue what it's worth?

I picked up a like new 2018 Suzuki 2.5 for 500 for my sportspal, which I figured was a good deal. You might be  somewhere around that price point. I have the narrower flat back sportspal and actually managed to fall out when I stood up and leaned over the motor to check that it was pumping water out. Thought I was gonna tip the canoe so flopped out. Ruined my cell phone. Some weight up front would’ve really helped. Other than that it was good.

I really don’t know.  I think I paid $650 for mine at the time in good used condition.  With the sportspal wide transom you’ll have no issues.  It will be a real nice rig to tour around in!

There’s a 2020 Tohatsu 3.5 for sale on Kijiji, East Gwillimbury , asking 990. Supposedly mint.

Thank you both, I was thinking around 750, so I hope to land somewhere in the middle.

Thank you Weeds, I can't seem to find it,  must be gone.

I looked for it last night because I would have bought that immediately. 

Many thanks,
