30hp Yamaha 2-Stroke Short Shaft

In excellent condition, running and with no rust. It's about 4 years old but probably has only 10 hours on it.

The story with this motor is that I needed a new dingy. So I bought one, spend a whole day rigging up the lifting harness and mounting the motor on it. Just as I was finishing, the local mechanic walks by and goes uh-uh-uh - only like a Frenchman can do. I look at him and say "What now?" He points out that I've just mounted a short shaft motor on a dingy designed for a long shaft. I couldn't return the dingy.

So, I bought a new Yamaha 30hp long shaft for $2700. I figure the old motor is worth half that. You can have the dingy - 11.5' AB Aluminum. It (the dingy) is in poor shape but useable.

$1350 - Located in Oyster Pond, St. Martin Can't ship.

Note - this motor is very powerful and was a little more then the 11.5 should have had, though it is rated for it. I ended up with a new 13' and it's a perfect combo. Attached are photos of old and new so you know the story isn't bs.

Yes I do. I'll be in St. Maarten from September 8th to the 12th. If you want it, that would be the best time to get it.

Re: 30hp Yamaha 2-Stroke Short Shaft

That can be arranged. I'll be in St. Maarten for two weeks in November. Send me a private message a week before you arrive and I'll let you know if it is still available. Otherwise, if your sure you want it, you can send me a 50% deposit and I'll hold it for you.
David.
