"Bob, assume you are talking about a 4 stroke model?
The prices I will quote are "advertised" and not msrp which will be higher. Not carved in stone but would give you an idea...
You could expect to pay about 4k for the motor with a bit of haggle room if you also buy the controls and have it installed/rigged by the dealer.
A new side control (Yami branded) will set you back about 350 bucks, plus the cables (30 bucks a piece or so - two required).
The prop can run from just over a hundred bucks to several hundred depending on what exactly you want - anything from composite, to aluminum, to stainless is available in 3 or 4 blade, cupped or not..
I do alot of rigging and if the dealer knows what they are talking about, you can figure out what prop will best fit your particular application. How you use the boat dictates which prop you should have.
Then you can count on about 250 bucks for the install - that's about the going rate plus or minus a bit.
All in, you can figure a little under 5K.
If you are open to looking at other mfg's, (bite my tongue I'm a Merc guy)
- I would really suggest that you check out Tohatsu's Direct Injected TLDI 40 horse 2 stroke. It's just as quiet and just as clean as any 4 stroke out there (and CARB rated so the EPA is happy with it too), weighs a little less - but in terms of fuel efficiency and overall "power", will kick the snot out of any 4 stroke on the market (of compatable horsepower) and the annual maintenance is significantly less. Cost would be about the same as outlined above - something to investigate/consider.
Evinrude's ETEC 40 would also be a candidate, but personally I don't like the high pressure injection system (the same as Yami's in their higher horsepower direct injected motors) - but may be a viable option.
If you are looking strictly at 4 strokes, I would go with Honda, even if it costs you a few more bucks. They do have issues with discontinuing models (and the parts along with it), but most guys, unless extremely biased, will admit that Honda probably builds the best 4 strokes on the market for all round durability and reliability..."
