A couple weeks I purchased a 1976 SRV-195 with a Ford 351. It is in really good shape for its age and the motor is smoother than my f-150's engine. I haven't had a chance to take it on the water yet because it needed some work but hopefully in the next week or 2 it'll be ready to rip. This is the first boat I have purchased but have been around boats for a good chunk of my life. I found it listed online for a price that hit right where I needed it to and came with 90% of the parts needed to get it in the water and rolling. If wanted I'll post some pics of it when I get the chance.
