I've got a 50's era Johnson seahorse, 25 hp, that used to run like a champ, but has sat for about a year. the engine is a little rough looking but the mechanics of it are solid (the last owner told me that he had it rebuilt). There are some pics of the motor here: www.geocities.com/nick_de_sieyes/motorboat<br />Are there groups of people who would be interested in buying old motors like this? Is it worth any money? I'm trying to sell this boat but I was wondering if I would be better off taking the motor and selling it separately since most people take one look at it and assume its not worth the trouble. Thanks in advance for any advice.

You can list it on ebay...or look at similar motors that may be for sale there to give you an idea what it may be worth.
