You gonna have enough room for all yalls tanks in there Aaron? Its def a little roomier than my F20 in the back but with three guys in mine and NO tanks its crowded. Im just thinkin your V is gonna have you spoiled with all that room you are used to.....

And I would cap it at 14k max..... 12 for the low-hour engine and 2k for a 30+ year old hull and no GPS is a stretch. I honestly think if your not in a rush you could find a happier medium with a much newer hull and maybe something with 500-1k hours on it

I agree with SSIRedfish. Also the fact that the bottom is painted is a red flag for me plus how high up the hull sides the bottom paint goes towards the transom. This is sitting at rest unloaded at a dock, how low does she sit when loaded with gear and 2-4 people with tanks, people climbing over the transom with gear in 2-4 foot seas?

I do like the rear transom seat layout, will this work for diving, and how does she ride with people sitting back there? She's already *** heavy with a 225 on a bracket judging by the bottom paint.

The t-top looks nice, but how heavy is it? Check where it's bolted to the deck and how. Any cracks or tea colored water stains?
