Hello guys I havent really been able to do any work to my boat traveling back and forth between the east coast and west coast.

Anyways I want to see your intake on a possible purchase this weekend, they are selling me twin '96 200 Johnsons for $5k, i would like to know what you guys think?

That's a huge project but a sweet hull! Good luck with it. That deal on the Johnsons sounds pretty darn fair to me.
