If it a 170 I/O and closed cooling system the block may be ok but probably froze the heat exchanger and maybe busted the riser. Hope it had plenty of antifreeze in it. I just cant see how anyone could leave it like that! My old V is wrapped up snug as a bug and winterized two months ago!

The marina doesn't have it's own ramp so the boat would have to be towed to the local ramp. Then put on a trailer which may or may not be registered. Too much liability ??

Can't you run the registration numbers and find out who owns it? I'd like to rebuild another I/O V20, wish it was closer!

Forty.... What marina was this at.... I may have to take a ride and check it out

I wonder if the owner passed and his family doesn't know the boat is there or even exist?
