[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 105909, member: 55"] Since you cannot post pictures unless you buy it, I can't help you on whether or not you should, because I cannot see the damage. My concern, however, besides the fact that it is an inboard/outboard (There are only a few cases where it is desirable over an outboard, and I doubt it is in your case), is the hull damage. Normally, a hull puncture doesn't bother me, but in this case, where you mentioned it is also very close to motor mounts, which, coupled with corrosion, could be the issue. I would make certain that you can fix that damage, and stop any future damage before buying, or you will end up chasing an issue around for years, which can end up costing a lot. [/QUOTE]
