Re: ? about a Bracket
I would be less concerned about the engine than the way it sits with 500#s hanging off that bracket and the way that transom looks closed off.
If I were you and considering that boat, I would worry about the bracket and consider adding a different floatation bracket (higher) and buying the boat without power and adding the new power of your choice, after a floataion bracket.
If he's adding 3K to the boat for that motor and you can get it for 7K without a motor and repower with a new Ficht, Merc SW, or Yami SSII motor, it would be money better spent than 10K with the old Mariner or certainly 15K with a 4 year old Yammi...
