If its a done deal not must to say but congrats on your new to you boat. What lakes will you be boating on and what model its it? Have you had larger boats in the past?

It's 35yr old boat, it's specific current condition is more important then an details about how it was when factory new. And unlikely to be in exactly the same condition as 1 owned by someone else.

Ask less general/basic questions

Ayuh,.... Probably aft starboard side, but follow the big red cable from the starter, the battery will be at the other end,.....

'n I doubt an "owner's manual" exists,....
Get a shop manual for the motor/ drive, whatever it is,....
