Lobo de Mar

You got a point about the trolling motor Skipper..if it can not be installed I better forget about the boat..trolling with those old two strokes is not a good Idea. Is just two bad because is a solid boat. In my price range at the moment this is what I Found close to my area: 2002 Fish Hawk 220 BF CC by Bombardier with a 150 HP Evinrude Ficht,Ram Injection with 220 Hours..I think it was a florida boat before. In a good shape,no T-Top 1998 Aqua Sport 20' CC by Wellcraft with a 115 HP Honda four stroke not sure how many hours in a nice shape, no T-TOP 2001 Sea Fox 23' W/A with a 200 HP Johnson two Strokes..in a decent shape but I heard a lot of complaints about this boat.

Thank you Skipper..The motors are original but no idea of how many hours..I'll say just "many". The dealer told me when I first started inquiring about the boat that the compression test readings were above 105 psi pretty much equally in every piston. I will do another compression test before make any final decision and a water trial of course. I was told that those looper engines back then woked at lower compression than other motors but I can't find any Manufacturer spec about that. The boat has a T-Top and I swear is beautiful boat in a great shape..I'm just scared about the motors. Price is great and I believe I can get to lower it a bit more..up here Center Console are not very popular so the boat has been on the market for a while..I guess some other buyers face the same fears I do about the motors. Will hurt badly if they blow up next month since re-powering that boat will cost me dearly. Is just to bad because I love the boat.

Hi everyone, I came across a 1998 Stratos Cenetr Console with two Johnson 225 HP two strokes.. boat is in a great shape.. not soft spots or stress cracks. It will obviously need a kicker motor for trolling. Just wondering if some one here is familiar with this type of boat. I love the boat but I'm scare of the two old Johnson on it even thou they had always been taken care by professionals. Any word of wisdom?
