The ad title says $6900 and the ad text says $8500 obo so not sure there. Looks a little rough but says it has a new motor.

I ended up buying it for $6500, no negotiation necessary. That was his bottom line price. His son, who placed the ad, asked $6900 in anticipation of haggling.

The seller seems to be a really nice, honest guy. I responded to the ad first and even though others were willing to buy it sight unseen, he was willing to sell it to me because he had told me I had first dibs.

He even threw in an extra out-drive part, an extra prop, and offered to get me some milder cams in case I found the engine too radical.
