I have an '86 Merc 115, an '82 Merc 90, and an '85 Merc 75 sitting in the garage. Probably the 115.

Still have to decide how I will lay it out, livewell?, seating? fuel tank(s), tackle storage, etc.

Well, I will keep one of the Mariners, probably the project I bought yesterday, if I lay it out right.

And will keep the Nassau I think.

Oh, forgot to mention, $550 for the boat and trailer. Could have had the boat for $275, but didn't want to drive an extra 250 miles to get my trailer from home. And this trailer is solid all around - minus one side marker light.

Post a picture of that splashwell!!!
I dropped mine to a 26" depth, I might even shorten it more next year.

Re: Oh no, bought another one, !!, ???

Is there ever such a thing as too many boats? I didn't think so. Good luck on the new project.

The 115 on that 18 will be a screamer. Looks like a great find.

Nice list of Tinny's past and present. Keep it up.
