Default Selling Fountain, how much extra for Teague Motor

I'm selling my 1997 single engine Fountain 29 footer. It has 240 hours total, and about 150 hours on a Teague Custom Marine 509 blower motor. How much more can I get for the boat due to this motor? Or is it not worth any more than if it had a Mercury HP500, etc?

Best of luck.

That is my philosophy also. I prefer all stock and sure more than not so do others.
A blower motor will not only be an issue of the motor, but many will consider of how the boat was driven with a blower motor. Not quite your grandpa's grocery getter.
