I bet the staining is from clogged or detached hatch drains. Common problem.
As for the 900's if they haven;t been opened up yet they need to be and the updates are not huge money during a rebuild. Rockers, Cams. If the valve are adjusted every 25 -30 hours and valve springs done every 100. The motors are pretty reliable.
This boat should have the updated structure in the engine compartment. 43 Rev's had issues with bottom flex in that area. Factory warrantied problem boats and added chicken feet to strengthen things up. No reported problems after that.
I'd say $70-80K for this boat is a pretty decent deal.

if you are interested, we have a re-gelcoated, new cockpit and cabin interior, panels, gagues, etc, engines, drives, exhaust, 1990 42ft revolution with triple 850hp engines that we should be done with in the next few weeks. It is all red with white interior. The engines just got put in the boat, no hours on anything yet. Father has gotten too frustrated and bored and no longer wants it.
375Stinger was his name. Not sure what ever happened... It was back in '06 that Dad was fed up.

My father owned this boat in the late 90s and early 2000s. It was an incredible experience for me as a teenager. Any idea where it went?

If you have time, check out the cig pic thread along with using google the search function. I know there was one in NE Ohio. Never the less you may find more info. I remember there were a few good threads on Revo
