Default 1990 290 project boat

Hello!
Recently purchased a 1990 Powerplay- Powerquest 290 project boat. I bought it at auction so I don’t know any of the history of the boat.
What I have figured out so far is the starboard drive won’t trim up or down, the port engine is seized, the cuddy needs some attention and I’m sure that’s not all! As soon as I get to ten posts I’ll get some pictures up.

Thanks
Brad

That is a nice boat. I was looking at them before we bought a used Sea Ray 27 Pachanga, twin small blocks.

Default Update

To update the port drive does trim up and down with the trailer button but not with the switch. I did pop the limit switch off and everything appeared to look good with it, the wires looked good as well.

If the trailer switch works am I right to assume I need a new trim limiter switch?
