To buy or not to buy, that is the ?

I'm not getting a good vibe, mako'. I bought a clean '87 with a running motor and a decent trailer for $2600. Motor is too sick to run after three trips, but I was really buying the hull and trailer. There are soft spots on the floor as well, but it doesn't sound as extensive. This boat sounds like an awful lot of work. Just my two cents...
