I have a chance to buy a 79 mercury boat, the motor is a mercury 700 70hp. The price is good so I went and looked at it, it will be my 1st boat. Just wondering if the age of the motor would make it hard to get serviced. Thanks

I see you are from Beaumont. If this rig has been in salt water at that age I would back off.
