I'm looking at buying a boat from someone I know. I forget the brand of boat but it's a 14' fiberglass trihull with a 75HP Chrysler motor (I belive the boat and motor were made in 1983).<br /><br />The boat is in great shape and all the interior was recently redone using quality material. The motor runs great and has even compression accross all 3 cylinders. I've also seen the motor with the head off and there is not even a hint of damage inside. I know the person I'm buying it from and he's the person who did all the work. I know the work he does is good (If he can't do it right he won't do it) and that the boat is solid and reliable. <br /><br />He's asking $3000 for the boat and the only thing that concerns me is the value of the motor and the ability to repair it in the future when something does break. (I know it's going to happen some time)<br /><br />Now assuming everything on the boat is in exelant condition, is this worth $3000?
