Default Buying a 98 Yamaha 150 today. Checked compression!

I checked out a 98 Parker 2110 WA with a 98 Yamaha 150 today and am getting a good price on it. I got 115 psi on all 6 cyl's after running temp achieved. Is that good? The weird thing about the motor is that it does not have a VRO Mix at the tank, which really doesn't bother me.

compression is good yes, ask the owner if he runs the motor on premix?
