Found this on craigslist this morning…they say the 4th cylinder is out, how big of a deal is that issue? Time and money wise, what do ya’ll think? I’ve got a 1 yr old and wife and I are trying to save for a house, but to get out on the water for this cheap seems too good to be true…thoughts?

unless you are willing to put a new motor on there, i would not bother with it… they obviously did not fix it when it was pointed out b/c it was cost prohibitive. (i don’t know what the term “CYLINDER IS OUT” means exactly, but i’d guess that a new power head is in the future)

Call him and ask him for the name and number of the mechanic that he took it to. Find out what the guy estimated for the repair, then you be the judge.

That McKee listed is a great hull. I had one not long ago and it surprisingly handled chop great and was dry. Great for gigging and I even had it out to 4ki a couple of times. I think it only took 6-7" of water to float.

these should get you on the water. ALL under 5k. It will cost you that much to repower that boat with a used motor.
