If you are looking at purchasing this boat, then you already know the incredible capabilities of this hull.  The boat has the right power with 1998, twin Yamaha Salt Water Series II engines.  They are old, but they still sound like purring kittens.  Not to mention, this was the best 2-stroke engine that Yamaha ever built.  Don't take my word for it, ask your mechanic.  If properly maintained, they will outlast you.  I have spared no expense to make sure that the boat is mechanically sound.ENGINE SERIAL NUMBERS500928503148I can send you survey that I had done at the beginning of this summer (2016) if you would like.  I repaired almost everything when I bought the boat.  However, the starboard engine gauges do not work, and there are some dings in the gelcoat.  The bottom plexiglass, in the console has a corner cracked off.There are no structural cracks on the transom, or on the hull.All of the pumps work as designed, but there are no oil pumps.  The fuel must be mixed 50:1.Lastly, the boat comes with a Loadmaster trailer that is road ready!  I had it trailered from Miami, FL to Savannah, Georgia.  It works fine.TRAILER SERIAL NUMBER4YDAB2323WT007703Somebody is going to get a great boat, and will be able to go where they want, when they want, fast!Good luck!
