Good afternoon, ...Bottom of the hull is as clean as a whistle. the new picture I posted today is the boat sitting in my driveway. I also posted a picture of the four stroke 8 hp outboard motor that comes with a new prop that is still in the box. Normally it is a very easy to start. I honestly have no idea how many hours are on the motor. I try to go under sail as soon as possible. Please let me know if you have any other questions
