Just picked up a 1980 204 Fisherman. No name, no power. I'm heavily leaning towards a zuki 175 4s simply because Yamaha does not have a 175 4s in their line and I think the 200 is too heavy.
I have lots of questions which I hope y'all can help with. But, my first one is:
Everything seems original except the transom which has been rebuilt. This includes the two seats for the fish boxes. I plan on getting them recovered in the future. Hoever, the bottom sides, which are the plastic lids for the boxes are starting to crack. Is there a source to replace these, or any hints for repair?
2. Can the batteries be relocated in the console to relieve the stearn weight?
Thanks to all on this forum. You convinced me to buy the boat without you even knowing it!
