Hi, Im new and looking for help in VA

[dmoore]

Ok Andy here are your pics...........This V is solid throughout but will need some TLC to shine.....I removed the engine cowl so you could get a better idea of the motor condition...since outward appearance doesn't always tell the whole story rule number one when buying a used outboard motor would be to ask for a compression check...I don't know if this has been done but I believe Matt stated in the Craigslist ad that the compression was in fact good. There is some cracking of the gelcoat at the bow flare areas of which I documented,also a small area on the port aft gunnel where the gelcoat has worn thru, not a deal breaker by no means....like I said some TLC is needed like any fiberglass boat that is upwards of 32 years old....

Trailer is sized correctly for an outboard powered boat of this size & weight and has one year old axle installed..trailer tires look very road worthy with no apparent blemishes.

All the glass & windshield look to be in very good shape...I did not unfold the bimini top but what I did see appeared to be in good condition.

If I missed any areas that are of concern let me know and I will get those posted up. Dave
