[andyh31]

Hey guys

Looking at buy my first bass boat it is a 2006 stratos with a 200hp evinrude on the back, I already looked at it once and going to test drive it tomorrow. Any recommendations for specific things to look at? Motor has about 300hrs on it and he has all the paper work for motor work etc.

Any info would help

Thanks

get compression checked before purchase............pretty strong built boats............that engines weakness is the lower unit...........pull drain plug and check for evidence of issues
