How much would a 1955 10 h.p. Sea Horse be worth? It runs and is in good condition.

If you put it on a boat and go fishing with your kids, then its priceless.. <br /><br />otherwise, not a whole lot... check on ebay and see if there is one there and what its going for.<br />official price rankings don't really mean that much real world....<br /><br />regards<br /><br />Frank

Hello Fishbubba<br />A beautifully restored engine can make it up to 700 dollars and the exceptional ones go for more.<br />A rust box might be sold for parts and can bring between 50 and a hundred.<br />Yours is probably anywhere in that range.<br />As said above: On a boat with your kids is where the real value is.

I'm with Frankie - your motor is only worth what someone is willing to pay. Truth is, there are a lot of them out there and relatively few people seeking them out. It's all supply and demand. For every $700 motor on eBay, there are dozens of decent motors at more reasonable prices. Only the most exceptional motors bring a premium dollar, and even then you have to find that one person who REALLY wants one. I bought two similar vintage Evinrude 10s last year for $30 and between the two I was able to build a really sweet runner that didn't look too shabby either.<br />- Scott
