have placed bid on a sailboat but I think its engine is on its last legs. Good chance I'll get the boat but I'll have to put in an outboard motor.

Questions:
Whats the cost for a 25hp outboard motor new? Used?

Do I need to have a transom installed? Do I have to do the transom installation myself or do the boatyards do it for me?
Whats the cost for transom installation?
