We finally bought our first boat.
1972 Glencoe 17.5' Open Bow I/O.
Ford 302/Volvo 280
Beautiful shape for the age. Engine is sound, gone through recently. EVERYTHING works. Hull is good, floor is good, upholstery is excellent. Very well taken care of. This will be a learning experience for me. The family (wife, son, 3 daughters) are all stoked!
Anyone have any advice/tips on this engine/outdrive , or any advice in general, anything is appreciated!!! A bit nervous, but I'm a competent mechanic and tinkerer and have always had a love for all things mechanical!
