Looking to upgrade my 1991 Evinrude 200xp, I put 225 reeds in it with bigger jets and it runs awesome. Looking for more power and rpm. I have my eye on a 2006 Evinrude 200 hp ETEC HO, the local marine is asking $8500.00 installed, it has low hours and they are the people that always service my boat. I feel that 8500 is about 2000.00 to high. I also found some really nice ones on ebay. What is your input, I would go with Mercury, but I would only want a Verado, not a "pop timax" Also what should I sell my 1991 Evinrude 200XP for?? I upgraded the upper and lower cowl off a 1997 Ficht Ram 225 to update the looks.
