Hello All
Boat shopping is scary!!! Went to re-check a boat I looked at a few weeks ago. First inspection turned up some engine troubles that were supposed to be fixed. On arrival the mechanic brought the boat around, I jumped in and opened the cabin door to find the porta pot floating @ cushion level in the cabin. Tried to get it to drain without any luck, guess the limber holes were plugged or no existant. Portable bilge pump was used to remove most of the water , center of boat was still full with water showing half way up the back end of fuel tank. and not draining. While wating for water to drain we pulled the bottom plug on the lower unit and found green "milk" (full of water). Least I knew the hull had no leaks all that water and nothing dripping out of the bottom!!!! RAN did not walk away with a smile and a Thanks but no thanks.....STILL LOOKING
