Good running Mercury 150 XR4 and Ranger 365V project boat

Description

This is a 1989 Ranger 365V fish & ski boat. The boat is a little bit of a project, but has a good running 1989 Mercury XR4. You can tell the boat has been reupholstered at some time in the past. The vinyl is all still soft and in excellent condition, but you can see that the wooden backing on the front seat back on one side has completely disintegrated. It is soft on the other side as well. If a person was handy, they could make new wooden backing and reuse the vinyl and foam that is all still good. Boat could also use new carpet. The hull itself it actually pretty nice. Not overly faded, not beat up or scratched up. Should buff up nice. The transom is solid and the boat bottom looks good too and has a 'keelshield' type protector on it. There is a trolling motor etc. on the boat, but I have not bothered to verify the working condition of any of the boat electrical equipment, steering, pumps, etc. I would just assume it all needs attention. The engine is in good running order. I checked the compression, and included pictures of the process. We checked it out, test ran it, changed the gearlube, tested the water pump, checked the power trim, checked the oil injection, etc. and it all checks out good. Trailer is ok, but again I have not bothered to check condition of lights etc. on the trailer. If you are looking for a good fixer upper, or perhaps you just need the engine, then this is the boat for you. I will not separate the engine, its for sale as package.
