Not a bad deal for the money, Good thing about the motor it will run a long time if kept up even tho it drinks a little. I like the older 2-strokes, don't get me wrong, I would love to have a new opti but you can find parts for older ones cheep and rebuild these for a lot less money. What you save on buying a newer motor will buy you a lot of gas! Good thing is the gas can be bought as you have the extra cash, the new motor is all at once. May be a small down grade from a seacraft but a mako is still a lot better than a lot of other boats out there for sure. Getting out on the water is whats important sometimes. You may of shook up the purest here but Good luck with the mako, hope she takes you out for may enjoyable days in the sun.
