I want to get a boat this year and I came upon a project boat for sale goin for $800...let me start of by saying I dont know much about boats, BUT I am handy and have done a lot of work to cars. The boat is a 1988 Searay..it looks like it has been sitting out without a cover for 3 years. But hey, im just looking for something to fish off. Looks like I may need to do some rewiring and perhaps get a cluster guage. Exacly how much wiring and electronic components does it have on this boat? Are the wires easy to get to? WHERE is the battery located? The hull looks like its in decent shape and just needs a bottom coat. I guess the main concern would be the engine! The previous owner doesnt seem like she knows anything about the boat maybe it was her husbands. But anyways ha according to her all it needs is a new battery. She said the engine has already been rebuilt that was all she knew. I believe the engine in this is a 100 HB Merc? Well here are some pics ( alot of pics) let me know what you guys think.
