Should I pull the trigger on a classic?

I am looking at an ‘85 SF 180 fish & ski. Paint, gel coat, transom, floor, and seats are in fantastic condition. Not sure how much I am will to pay considering it does not have hydraulic steering, hot foot, nor jack plate. The trolling motor and electronics are very old. The Evinrude motor is original and ran when last used less than a year ago. Custom single-axel trailer is a few years old.


I live in Texas, so it will get year round use mostly for fishing. Thoughts?

If the price is right, why not?
