Just bought it today. I am completely rewiring it. It already has new carpet. the wood is in great condition. And it is the same age as me.

This is my first boat, and I think it will be a great starter. The motor was just gone thru yesterday by a mechanic. It starts great and idles great with the ears on. The motor is I think an 1986 Enivrude 88SPL. 88hp

That looks like a great fishing rig and I bet it hauls with that 88 on there. Great boat and motor.

Looks like a really nice starter boat to me. Looks like it will fly on the water.
