    That is what new ones go for. Cabellas has them for about that same price.

    they are okay motors but dont plan on moving faster then what a 55lb trust trolling motor could move you...i would shop craigslist for a 9.9....my fishing partner had one and it was very loud and didnt push his 9ft pond hopper very well
