Not a bad looking boat. When I was looking for a boat myself, I was told, anything with a white colored outdrive..to RUN !!. Any reason for this...hard to find parts ??

Alot of times a white outdrive means OMC. OMC outdrives are hard to get parts for and were never that good in the first place.

I stand corrected, to bad about the less than perfect outdrive issues because outside of that, that boat is probably as good as it looks

We like to refer to those OMC's as "White Elephants" :P

MS...

You're in the ballpark - getting it for around $1k or so would be OK if she checks out OK (solid deck, stingers transom)
It would give you enough headroom to do a fill the hole in the transom ($500+), do a bracket ($1000), and outboard ($3-6K+). And if you start now - you may just get it done in time for summer ... SO IMO - given those numbers, timeframe and work - you may want to keep looking around...
Anyhow you already have one - and you want two, three or more ??

Look around for an outboard model. Be patient
