Not having any knowledge about boat motors, what is the best way to obtain information about what to look for when buying a used outboard motor?

There is an equilivent to a Blue Book for outboard motors. The best available up to date version can be viewed at your bank or lending institution. Please advise what other information you would like to have. motor spec's?, boat spec's? Please be a little more specific as to what information you are looking for.
