[QUOTE="Jdholmes, post: 226021, member: 6982"] Here are some more detailed pics of the boat as it was when I got it. I took the lower end off the motor as you will see in the pics - the impeller was in great shape so I will keep it as is and just replace the oil. I am not sure on the transom. If you look close in the pics you will see that the brace has cracked at the highest point...not sure if that is going to be a big deal. There is a circular thing mounted on the back of the boat that you can see in one of the pics...anyone know what it is? There seemed to be a little water come out before the oil started pouring out...is that normal? Oil seemed quite dark with a little yellowish green tint when a thin layer coated the bowl... A couple wires in the back of the motor housing seem a little dried out and brittle...but otherwise seems to look good to me...you? Comments and suggestions more than welcome. [/QUOTE]
