Hi,
I just bought a 1987 Sea Ray 268, for a winter project.
The boat is in overall great shape, needs some TLC here and there, and a good cleaning. The twin V6 / 205 Mercs, have 500 original hours.....both start right up.......I bought this boat for a winter project with the intentions of using it next year. The boat needs out drives, it is my understanding that they are Alpha 1, generation 1. Ive been shopping for them, however I have no idea what gear ratio they should be..........
I purchased this boat for $1000.00 dollars,knowing that the out drives are expensive.....looking for used ones....
Can anybody tell me the gear ratio I should be looking for?
and any other problem areas on this boat that I should be looking at?
Thanks
