I ran across this outboard for sale. It's on an old 12' kneeldown hydro. My knees would not handle the boat but the motor looked interesting. The motor has never been used. I've done some looking but found no info on "WORLD" outboards.

Anyone have any info on the motor or a price guess-timation on value?

It's a Yamato model WORLD 80 by the World Motorboat Corporation. They started making them in Jan 1974 not sure for how long, 30hp @7K. Might be worth the drive.
