Description:
|
I found this boat through a lead in a car forum. I was looking for something I could take out without much work, and this seemed solid. I had a mid 80s Supra and thought I learned my lesson about boats that were built with wood in the deck and stringers. I thought i knew what to look for and it really seemed good. Of course I found out otherwise. Deck and stringer work, something I wanted to avoid, was needed. The 140 Mercruiser is in great shape. The engine ran OK and a compression check confirmed it to be sound. The lower unit was missing the exhaust bellows and the driveshaft bellows was cut. The outer hull is very solid and the gelcoat still looks good. I could not find any major stress cracks, so it came home with me.
