Congrats Fishstretcher on that boat. Make sure you check the fuel tanks out if they have not been replaced? Show more Pics

Fish - congrats on finding that rare gem! Should be a nice rig with modern engine and new outdrive! I've seen both Connor's and Blue Heron's boats - they know that model well, have put them to good use, and can give you some great advice! I love that layout and hull design. It appears to be one of the most sea-kindly of all SeaCrafts and should allow you to fish in some really nasty stuff!

The early Bravo 3's had a bad rep for corrosion/electrolysis problems and poor customer support from Merc, but I'll bet Pelican knows what the fixes are! Denny

Thanks!

The lower unit is an '07 reman. It looks like it has GenII Bravo 3 zincs- like on the propshaft-, but I am not sure. Either way, it will be a trailer queen for year one, and I got all this for the used, sold in winter in New England price. I could never afford this stuff new, so I think it is a decent deal. But I will keep an eye on it, and help is appreciated.

Pics are forthcoming. I got a precious few snaps just before I got the tarp on it and the next storm blew in. I have a 20 lb chunk of ice on my trash can lid (it is out for collection right now) so it won't blow away in the 40 MPH, 10 degree gusts.
