I'll try and post it tonight.

did you go with a bracket and outboard?

Nothing yet. I'm in the middle of the resto. It's a love hate relationship, I actually have it posted on the forum section for $800 as a bare hull and not one hit after three months. I think I'll just keep it and finish it at this point. I have guy from NY coming to look at it next week. If he doesn't take it than I'm keeping it. The kids will thank me when we're cruising through Nauset Inlet!

I do plan on putting a 115 on it once I get the transom finished. Most likely the transom will go to 25" with no bracket. What is your powered with?

Right now, nothing! Hence the thread "where should I buy a 3.0 mercruiser"... I'm definitely keeping this one I/O though.

Steve,

Have you talked to this group?

I think they're based in WA but delivery is cheap and warranties appear very good.

checked that site but it looks like they're only selling long blocks in the 3.0.

Have you looked at these folks.
