Hi everyone,
I'm currently looking at a very clean 430 Convertible with Cat 3208TA's. They appear to run well and are clean and dry but they are in a 1988 Sportfisher with 4500 hours on them. This is a Bank Repo boat so the boats history including engine maintenence is not available so I have to take the "word" of the broker until I decide to spend the money on my own Complete survey.
Do I pass this one due to the specific engines or the time on them. I know the trucking world considered these throw away motors. Also any idea what kind of fuel burn I'd have in a economy mode?
Thx,
Rorysd
