    Default Yamaha 25/30s

    Is there still a market for them? I haven’t been paying attention the last few years but looked recently and don’t see any for sale?

    I sold both of mine a few years ago. Id guess the whole Arkansas wma limited days mighta put a damper on the oos demand for them.

    I’m rolling around the idea of selling mine to get a four stroke but maybe I missed the peak of the market.

    I feel like you could still sell that pretty easily, and for good $.

    But I’m not an expert

    It’s a long. I’ve been searching marketplace to get a price on them and to gauge market interest but really see much. It’s not a necessity but the quietness of a four stroke would be nice.

    I sold my 25 4 years ago, was a sweet motor but the 4 stroke is so nice. I think I sold it for 2700.

    Tiller handle outlaws on Facebook. It won’t last long.

    Them boys don’t go nowhere without a can of starter fluid and a few extra pull ropes.

    The only thing I miss is the smell and the sound.

    I still run one. Blew the foot up on one with BigBrother in the boat a few years ago, bought another one on here soon after.

    Think about selling my 15 alumacraft with a 25 Johnson on it as well. Maybe even my 22’ pioneer baysport with a 250 Yamaha and going to a Blackhawk

    Just sold my older 1542 Duracraft with a one year old 4 Stroke Yamaha electric start. The motor had 45 minutes on it.
