1985 Evinrude 28 SPL

[Blue_Runner]

Thanks Ferm and Spares, but this isn't my motor - I was looking at buying it if it checked out but after talking with Skools I don't think I will. Seems shady all the way around - not just the compression #'s.

When I talked to the guy yesterday I mentioned that I'd still be interested in the boat but not the motor. He said bottom dollar is $1000 for boat and trailer....then he said, "to be honest I don't want to fool with taking the motor off and I'll take $1000 for the whole package." So that tells me he sees no value in that motor! There were a bunch of other inconsistencies too...too many to list. Anyway I feel I checked it over good and made the right decision to pass on this one......thanks for you input guys!
