I upgraded my membership so I could post these pictures and hopefully a video of this 303 I can't get outta my head. Let's see if they load up. Remember, it had "low oil pressure" on a cold start. It had an abnormal amount of blowby after we ran it (not
real hard mind you) and a peculiar fuel setup. Please tell me what you think, please. Here we go:

under step and PCV breather setup (same on other engine).

here's a pic of the boat's motor's and the fuel "pump "booster" setup and the boat itself (while I wait for the video to load of the PCV nightmare and blowby):

That video would make me tear my heads and manifolds off in a second and look for water.is the oil clean? any signs of moisture?

Wow... Run from this cobbled up mess.

Oil looked good. The only moisture I could see was a couple drops of milky residue at the bottom of the PCV breather. That didn't seem to concerning to me compared to the other
things!

That under step pic shows water has been standing in there for a long time. That level of neglect is disturbing and lends no credibility to anything the owner might say.

Right. What I couldn't understand was that supposedly the boat was kept in dry storage all most all it's life at THEIR marina! I asked if they left it out for a month or two during rainy season here in Florida or what, lol. But,
he didn't care for that comment. Just like he kept telling me he (the broker) himself used to be a mechanic. Then, I said, "if you were a mechanic, these things should concern you". No real response either. Seems like a
dead deal except for the possibility of me going over there again (3 hours each way) to find out what a mechanical gauge says and possibly a compression test. But, that's a whole day off I'd be committing to and I am pretty
sure (based on the data shown here) that there's a really good chance I'm not gonna find any exciting info that leans my way. Of course the other option is to hire a surveyor, but that's $500 out the window, if I was a betting man.

I would not trust anything they say when the obvious signs in the boat arr open contrdictions to their claims. If they want to get real with the price based on current conditions then it can sell. Otherwise it can be like so many boats that are for sale for many years and don't move. Sad this one needs so much but if they cut the price in half you might have the money to fix it.

Man, that ghetto fuel pump looks like someone's half ass idea of getting fuel to the engines after the one in the tank failed... That under step picture is almost a dead sign that the stringers are rotted. Whoever owned that boat should never be allowed to own a boat again.
