    Bought a used but not used boat. Should I do anything?

    It is a 1657 SS, I remember it setting at the local boat dealer back in 2013 for a while, a guy finally bought it to add to his collection of boats he already had.

    Bought a used but not used boat. Should I do anything?

    I’m a proud new owner of a 2013 creatliner with a 2013 40hp merc. Boat has never been in water nor has engine ever seen fuel. Should I do anything to it since it sat for 5 years? Change oil?? Or is there a special break on oil in it?

    How much should I ask for this for a quik sale ?

    Yes, I agree on cleaning it as I was planing to. Those were just some quick pics after pulling it out from storage. I may even put the center seat back in. I have a outboard to sell also but it's 10hp over the hp limit. So I'm not going to install it. I'm going to list it separately.

    How much should I ask for this for a quik sale ?

    Somewhat, boat used to be decked out. Center bench has been removed buy can easy be reinstalled. No dents in hull. I don't remember any leaks. It'll make a great winter prodject for someone. I'm not sure what to ask for it. I don't want it setting around too long. So I'm leaning around $500-600...

    stick steer? Yay or nay

    tosing around the idea or converting my boat to stick steer. I've personally never been in or around one but seems like it would be a good idea. I like to hear from someone that has ran one. the pros and cons.
