1993 V21 FOR SALE. Long Island, NY

[briguyny]

Its a 1993 motor. I asked the previous owner (he works with my father) about the hours and he just told me "Brian, I never ever used that thing" He told me his son took it out a few times but nothing really to speak of after that I think it just sat there year after year at his house. when I bought it I threw two new batteries in it and had a mechanic tune up the engine and clean out the carbs. I remember him telling me that beneath the beat up cowl was a perfect engine. I put about 10 or so hours on it last year. Don't know if this answers your question but it's all I have right now. Is there a better way for me to determine engine hours? There's no gauge for it on the boat. Hope this helps.

I think you've described the time on the motor very well...If I had a spare 5 Gs and a trailer, I'd come get it right now...

Thanks reel. I was really looking forward to this season but my wife asked if i would sell it because we are having our third kid in August. She says she has no intention of being on the boat this year, which I understand. I have a feeling that in a couple of years I will be looking for the exact same boat again and will be kicking myself, but for now I could use the cash with a growing family. I figured I'd put it here first in case anyone wanted it. I figure ill try my luck on craigslist soon.
