THE ONLY THING THAT MATTER'S IS IF YOU THINK IT'S A GOOD DEAL , EVERYONE HAS THERE OWN OPINION .
YOU WILL NEVER MAKE ANY MONEY SELLING A USED BOAT SO AS LONG AS YOUR HAPPY WITH THE $ YOU PUT INTO IT GO FOR IT :)
BECUASE IF YOU WHERE TO TRY AND SELL THE BOAT AFTER YOU DO THE WORK WITH THE NEW MOTOR'S IT WILL BE A USED BOAT AND MOTOR'S AGAIN AND WILL BE WORTH HALF OF WHAT YOU SPEND OR CLOSE TO THAT .
YOU CAN NEVER WIN WITH BOAT'S JUST LOOSE MONEY :rolleyes:
