    300 HPDI's on 330 Express

    How does the boat run with the new 4 strokes? How are your scuppers? Did you raise them or just leave them? Congrats on the new 4 strokes, I bet you have already turned the key to on while they were running. lol

    What should I do?

    50k is about what its worth if you can find a buyer who will buy a boat with 1300 hours on the engines.

    What should I do?

    Sounds to me like they did know and failed to tell you. If you knew they had 1300 hours on them would you have even looked or bought the boat? I am sure you would not have paid what you payed for her.

    What should I do?

    I am sorry, you were lied to and a huge big lie at that. You were buying the boat thinking it had 671 hours on eack engine and they have 1300 hours? Your resale value just went down the toilet! What if you need to unload the boat or just want to unload her? You will have a much harder time...

    what's the bare minimum power for a '93 Gulfstream ?

    Transom crack? o my, I hope the price is good as the transom crack might cost more then the boat is worth. Be careful. Could cost more then its worth if you have to also add power. Too many good deals out there.

    Most of them will only do the boat and test ride. I would get both. The engines are where you will run into the most $$$ problems and I would get a Yamaha guy with YDS check out everything. Get the ser numbers off both engines and send them to Andy at Sim and see if he will run a check for...
