Help me if you can please. I,ve had this 1983-225 sea ray for over 3 years now. The person that sold it to me said straight up that he knew nothing about it and his mechanic had moved out of state. The engine is not a 1983 and it's been told to me that it is a 1995, by another boater who can't tell me how he determined that. Right now it's running like new since i've basically fixed everything from the engine to the alpha 1 outdrive. I,ve had the engine out and there are no numbers on the stbd side near the starter or anywhere else, but i really want to know what the serial # is. On the port side and aft just below the coil reads "GM 5.7 SGI" and just above that reads "L144"). It is a 5.7 L mercruiser with a 4 bbl webber carb on it (which i've changed to a new Edelbrock 1405) and alpha 1 gen 1 outdrive but how in the world will i ever find out the exact year?
Thank you
