1989 IMP 270 Express
1983 Checkmate 24' w/ 275 O/B any opinions?

There is one for sale relatively locally, never really been an outboard kind of guy, but it has a 275HP Evinrude on the back. Anyone have any opinions on the boat? he thinks it's a 1983 Enforcer SX. Thanks for any help

It needs interior work, the seats are pretty badly weathered but all there, but supposedly still runs 55-60. He wants $3k which I thought was pretty fair.

I had the exact boat but with a 260HP 350 merc and alpha 1 drive. Same colors and everything. It was a pretty good boat, handled rough water pretty well for its size. Did about 56-57 on a good day.
