[QUOTE="donutman, post: 288412, member: 7292"] Talked with the guy last night. He didn't really know much about the boat. Looks like the boat and motor are 88-89. He had bought it in June to take his kids fishing and wants to move into a center console. Hasn't done anything to the motor himself but said the previous owner had just had it checked and tuned. He did mention that he had screwed the new flooring into the ribs of the boat. Isn't that a no no? I could have sworn I read some where that putting screw holes in the ribs would ruin the structural integrity of said rib. The earliest we could go for a test drive would be about two weeks from now the way our schedules work out, so we'll see what happens with that. I'll have to crawl up under it and have look for patches and JB Weld too. Was just thinking, if I buy this boat, I could use it while I do a remod of my deep V Tracker. Thanks again for the input guys, I do appreciate it. Dave [/QUOTE]
