I knw this guy, he's a used car dealer/used boat dealer. He has some pretty good boats, but sometimes they are stuff he's thrown together

what happened to that aquasport he had ? I looked at that thing for a couple of years but was unwilling to pay the $8,000 he wanted for it and the trailer it was on.

I like that 23 foot walkaround in Charleston. What is a 470 I/O. If it is, as I am thinking, a 4 cylinder engine, wouldn't that be a little small for that boat?

That 210 is a 21' boat, not 23. Chris Craft sold it as a 21'.

only the marina's measure your bracket and pulpit for docking prices. they measure my 250 as 28ft docking length with motors trim down.

470 is a four cylinder 170 hp power mercruiser engine, it used a Ford 460 head. The nice thing is they are fresh water cooled(has a heat exchanger) bad thing is they are 170 hp. A little small for that boat, but it will probably run decent

I've fished in a 21 with the 470 MerCruiser, it runs well. The only complaints I've heard on the 470 were the heat exchanger is too small one it has the slightest amount of fouling and the alternator is integral and mounted on the crankshaft. Otherwise it was a good engine from what I've seen. MerCruiser named it for 4 Cylinders and 170 HP. They did the same play on numbers with the MerCrusier 888 which was 8 cylinders and 188 horsepower (8 cyl, 302 cid, 188 hp).
