I'm looking closely at a 1970 Olson 17' glass I/O. It's a 4 cylinder with dual carbs. This is my first boat, ever! I'm 60 years old and just moved to Lakeport
near Clear lake in California . I was looking for a bass boat but am unwilling to spend more than $5K. The more I looked it seems the better value can be had with
an older rig. I will be using it almost exclusively for fishing. The seller is asking $2750 . The hull appears well cared for. My main concern is the motor.
Below there's a link for the listing on Craigslist and also one for a short video. Please take a look and tell me what you think.
I'm looking for a reliable rig that won't drain my bank account. This one looks good to me. I just can't afford to make a mistake. I'm a decent mechanic so small issues shouldn't be an issue. Opinions appreciated.
Thanks ,
Jcris
