Well thanks! The only thing of concern is the upholstery, its a bit worn out, but my momma will fix that! She loves little projects like that, and it's fairly simple. The motor was rebuilt a few years back and runs great, brand new trolling motor and 2 fishfinder/depthfinders, and a working livewell! I can't believe I found such a great boat for such a little price. 115 johnson on the back, what kind of horsepower is that? It's a 16 foot boat how fast will that puppy run ya'll think? 30-35ish?

No issues with towing the Skeeter. Max towing is 5000 lbs. They all have 4 liter, V6's w/239 hp. Soon to come, new exhaust, air raid filter and chip should help out alittle.

 My first boat bought when I was in highschool over 30 years ago from Kromers Ace Hardware in Fort Worth TX, I paid 395.00 for the boat new, 125.00 for the trailer new and my dad had bought me the used evinrude motor 9.5 hp. I bought the boat and trailer on layaway. I was working after school and on the weekend at Myer's department store making about 2.30 an hour. Best deal I ever made.
