Feel bad

[cfelton]

I'm with the other guys, you told him he needed it to be checked out and ran it for him. Thats all you can do! It was probably something he did in the first place. Don' feel bad, most sellers wouldn't have told him anything. When I bought my V, I paid $1000.00 for it and the owner said it sat up for two years, found out it sat for five years and the transom was all rotted out. After I rebuilt it all, motor, gimble, outdrive, transom and stringers, I posted pics in the gallery and called him so he could see the work I had done. He called back and was glad it had turned out so nice. We're both happy!
