Looking at a 88 313 cc. Boat is overall solid , two small soft spots in floor in bow area. Other than that solid. Did notice a decent hook in the bottom strake. Did these boats come out of the mold this way and are they necessary for the boat to preform correctly? Lastly wanting to install trip mercs. Seen lots of talk about trips but no pics, or conversation of how the boat ran after done. Any info is appreciated .
Thanks

Currently looking at one in Virginia and trying to gauge price and source restoration parts. Any luck with your research?
