I just registered here!
Im almost closing on a deal to buy a
GW Marlin 280 - not sure what year exactly where between 89-94.

I got some photos i will share some time later. The beauty has been tripped from its engines and all electrical wires and equipments which I see is a plus so i can fit it the way i want.
It has been inspected and all is well so first things first and i would need all the advice and help possible.
Here we go:
What is the max hp i can have on it?
What other things i should inspect before buying?

Thank You
Bader.

Congrats..seems like you got a long road to getting her running again
Not sure what max hp but a set of 250 should be great. And make sure to put a moisture meter to the hull and transom
