Fuck. I could have had these sold for you if you would have posted it earlier this year!

I'm headed up to Oxnard maybe next week to get two freshly rebuilt engines running.

Missed it by That much!!!

Awe well. If anything changes let me know. I’m not advertising them anywhere else. Buddy actually may buy them for a 39’ carver. Got my eyes set on another set of motors but there’s no huge rush.

I’ve rebuilt 3 or 4 blower motors. It sucks. Unfortunately, it’s part of boating. 🤦‍♂️

But not with these reliable 496’s!!! 😁😁😁

That is the only way they would fetch 14k each.
Really? You think 14k each is high?

12k a motor (plus Shipping) with 450+ hours on them from Randy Garcia and look like they've been at the bottom of the ocean.


single 496 refreshed (so, basically like my port motor) for 20k (plus shipping)


Single 496 HO refurbed 12k (plus shipping) from some rando on ebay and seller even mentions its under market value.


Or you can buy a brand new 496 for 30k!



I'm not giving them away but I think it's fair market value. Definitely not high enough to talk shit about. Especially considering they'll be local (havasu) and were maintained and worked on by a very well respected high-end mercury certified mechanic, so the purchase comes with peace of mind of knowing exactly what you're getting, not rolling the dice.

I feel your asking price is very fair. I just had to put a new 496 in last season and it was much more than you’re asking. Especially a motor with only 15 hours

Prices have gone up. When I looked at selling mine in 2016ish, I was luck to get 8k (12 with drive and gimbal). Decided to keep it and now have plans for twin 300R’s. Complete redo of my deck and first Ultra 26 Deck with wackers :). Just need the wife to re approve the boating budget.
