I want to be clear that I have never had one issue with this boat in any way. The only thing I have done is clean it up and paint it for the past 2 plus years. There are still some cool things you can do jazz it up but I will leave that for you to do. This is a great tinker around boat that you can just have fun with without spending any serious money on. The term Break Out Another Thousand (BOAT) does not apply to this boat. This engine should go for another 20 years before needed anything!
Good Luck!
