Wellcraft Caostal 238

[willy]

All right saw saw the boat, hull in very good shape, but motor needs a good paint job. I took the serial and model numbers before i left. Got home and found out the engine he had said was a 99 was actually a 93, and the shaft size as per the motor tag is 30 inch, and it looked it.
So, called the guy today and told him and he said he would call his father and the boat shop which I know and see what the deal was.
He calls back and said he talked to the shop and they took the power head off of a 99 which was a trade in motor and in good shape and put it on his 93 engine as the trade in motor was a 25" shaft. According to them the 94 238's required a thirty inch shaft for a single engine application and a 25" shafts for a twin engine set up.
So I told him I was interested still and we are going to do a sea trial first week of April.
He just called me back and says he has two guys that want the boat, same money and that they just want to hear it run on a hose no sea trial.
I told him I won't do that, to go ahead and sell it if he cant wait.
Supposed to call me and let me know.
