Hello,
I am new here, I will probably ask too many questions for some time, please bear with me
I am the happy owner of a 1993 Searay 180 BR still in perfect condition, and have now added a 1992 180 BR/OB to the list. It needs some love, but it will be a beautiful boat once finished. Upholstery, guard rail, emblems, some gelcoat repairs and it will be almost perfect.
One of the things I need to do is change the motor. The 175hp carbed v6 is very thirsty. I have another boat that will welcome this engine
Do you know what shaft length the 180 OB motor should be? I have conflicting information... Some tell me 20", some others 25".
Thanks!!
