Boat is a 2001 with 2004 F225's. In my opinion all Yamaha's have potential corrosion issues, I had 2007 F150's that were shot beyond repair and have seen posts of newer with issues still. I know not all of the motors are effected, but the dealers lack of even acknowledging the potential issue...

This dealer has a boat for on brokerage I am interested in. I talked to the salesman earlier in the summer and had the typical questions, mid sections on the Yamahas, etc. They were adamant this boat doesn't need mid sections due to the hours and they have never been scoped but we all know...

We sold our 272 Sailfish with plans on a Marlin someday soon. Being boat-less we starting looking for something smaller that would hold its value until we found a Marlin that would keep us happy to allow us to wait for the right boat. A dealer had a Gulfstream on the lot used we went to go...

I would check the low pressure fuel pumps, maybe the extra work required on them caused the diaphragms to crack. They are common to fail, normally not a bad idea to change every few years. You might just have 1 bad and thats why is running at higher rpms? Just a guess Unbolt them from block...

I did see it listed on TheHullTruth the other day, not sure if seller is monitoring that at all

Any idea on a starting asking price?

I keep seeing this recently in my searches, seems clean https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/471363368103844/?ref=search&referral_code=marketplace_search&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3Ae48106f3-212c-436f-91aa-f4c294373666

I remember see this boat when it was listed, sounds like exactly what you are looking for

I agree to have everything in writing. I got one quote today, 21,400 for each Suzuki 250, labor, controls, tax brought it for $54K. Low compression on 2 bottom cylinder same enigne. I spoke with the sellers mechanic and he was thinking carbon on valves, they still had 80psi. Motors have over...

We just wanted new for the sake of having trouble free motors, hopefully. Not opposed to used for the right price. We are looking at early 2000's Marlins to repower new, anything newer than 2004 seems to get steep in price and still have 15 year old outboards with 1000 hours, I would rather...

I was not sure what to expect and went to the boat show to ask around and that was what one small Suzuki dealer said. He actually recommended calling a larger dealership figuring they could beat his price and was closer to me, $11k more was a little bit of a shock Not close to me but Sandpiper...

I looked at a 2002 Marlin over the weekend that needs to be repowered. At the boat show I spoke with one marina and they seemed confident they could rig new Suzuki twin 250's with digital controls for around $45k. I called a larger dealer today and they quoted $56k for the same thing and have...

Any interest in a 268 Islander with twin 150's, 300 hours on motors. Before we bought this boat we were looking for a Gulfstream until we saw one next to an Islander on land, the Islander looked like a lot more boat to us. On a 2015 Load Rite trailer located in Massachusetts.

There has been one for sale in Boston Craigslist for at least a year with a blown 350hp Yamaha, recently saw it reposted, it had a trailer under it before but is listed without it currently

Thanks for the offer, but I am done with this one. I was mainly curious if anyone else had any interactions with this ad where it was listed for awhile and I know there are a few people here looking for a Marlin. It was just a strange conversation even as far as scams go, if its not a scam the...

I feel like I am usually pretty good about picking out the scams. This one was interesting where the ad looked so real with relevant information and requested text message, and I was watching this particular boat for awhile too. The way the text conversation went was odd even for a scam. I...

I am more just. frustrated to what these scammers actually get out of these ads. I find it hard to believe many people fall for scams on these big ticket items for the volume of scam ads there are. My thought is they are looking for emails and contact information to sell. If that boat I...

If you are looking for a used motor I would include a used OX66 in your searches, might be more economical to find a running takeoff then a powerhead for that one. They seem to be harder to find but it would be a low cost option to get on the water, and after parting the one you have out even...

Anyone have any interactions with a seller of a 2002 Marlin with 2006 250's in Key Largo from Craigslist? It has been listed awhile and I have been watching it. Price was recently lowerred and I reached out and it get very weird very fast. Asking $60k without trailer, said he would do $52...

The only full side photos I have in my phone. We had this on a 7k tandem trailer for a 24'ish boat. We knew the trailer was way too small but we planned on just moving a few miles from ramp once a year and we already had the trailer. Although the boat was long for the trailer it fit...
