If you can afford the fuel, it don't get much more reliable than a late model JOHNNY-RUDE looper. It looks to be a late 90's from the cowling and sticker pattern on it. There thirsty, but those are the engines that made OMC a name for MANY years. I've seen them keep going with rods hangin out the block. They didn't sound good, but still got people home.

Well, then he's probably got a good price on her. If he'll ship and handle it for free all the way down here, I'll take it.

Stop it, there is nothing wrong with rollers!! Just like with anything if you maintain it they will last for years with out problems!
Nothing wrong with Jonny-Rudes either! 200 hours are off shore?? Were did you get that from?? Guy said 100 hours was on there from leaving the key on and making the clock tick! And why is a new motor better for salt then used??  :h ead::hea d:

Sorry, it's just an opinion. The pictures show marks on the boat that could possibly be from the rollers as even charlie admitted. Maybe he didn't keep up the trailer. I am also not a fan of BAD engines; and every brand of engines has a bad spot; even mercs. The guy who was selling it alleged that the key was turned on for 100hrs. It's hard to trust some people these days. Lastly, salt tends to corode an engine faster than just water alone. I'd rather buy an old boat with no engine, an attatch a new engine in any case. I think charlie has a good price on her.
