Yeah TinMan, that's a late '80's motor. Possibly original?
I just went down to the yard with the one with the Suzi motor. No one there and the gate was closed. Snowing pretty good up here right now, so they probably decided not to open shop. ??? They're usually open right through the winter, so I'll stop back in when they're open for business. From what I could see, the boat looks very clean and in excellent shape. Other than the closed transom, it seems to have what you're looking for. BTW; I think that bow fighting chair was a pretty standard thing. While mine didn't have the chair when I bought it, it did have the receiver plate on the deck that came that way from the factory. The chair must have gotten misplaced over the years before my possesion.
I'll report back soon. 8)

Oh, and another thing. If you look at the pics in my gallery at the motorwell cutout, this cutout is very easy to adapt a washboard in place to prevent any accidental wave from a following sea. It's not shown in my pics, but I made one out of Starboard that went the full height of the opening and was hinged horizontally to flip the top half down to allow full tilt of the motor. The motorwell has 2 drain scuppers that wash out fairly quickly. So, if you find one to your liking with the exception of the fully closed transom, I would consider adding this piece, and you're good to go. ;)
