twin Chevy 454 magnum  mercruiser engines  alpha 1 outdrivesRebuilt engines and outdrives rebuilt 3 yrs ago by previous owner. both have about 60-70 hrs on them.  so there are no surprises NOTE:known issue with Port  motor the port side head on  the port motor. which is the easy one to get to will need to be pulled.  The number 5 cylinder has low compression 100lbs  other cylinders on that side are 170lbs probably head gasket bad.Starts runs,  idles and revs  fine,  but can tell under power #5 cylinder is misfiring and getting water in cylinder.   but not getting into oil  so it most likely is a  head gasket issue.  oil pan is clean.  no damage to lower end. so your talking  even if head is Bad  which o don't think it is but  worse case a replacement on Ebay are going for  350.00  plus  probably 10 or so hours for mechanic labor to replace   so maybe 1500 to repairStarboard motor no issues both motors winterized for season
I have had it over 65mph  with room to go.gauges could use some work most work a few are glitchy.Always dry stored never stored in water.Electronicshas a hummingbird fish finder/ depth finderCB radio  3 brand new batteries Trailer 4 new tires.  the trailer is a little rough.  it was salt water boar and  trailer from Florida its solid but  the fender need rework  the wiring needs wotk but are functional   the hydraulic break system doesn't work I towed it 400 miles no issues with out and it wasn't that big a deal. Now but I only tow it 50' to  the water so really no big deal now.  One of the axles has a bend in it it will need to be replaced I drove of 370 miles with no issues at 70 miles an hour   its solid but will need replacement     look on Ebay they are selling brand new axles on here delivered for 250.00  so quick easy fix for axleSo all in all yo have a 60+ mph go fast boat your looking at around 1500-2000 in repairs and  bam  solid boat solid trailer and tons of funAny other questions let me know anyone with zero feed back contact me before bidding or it will be canceled
