Joe, sent Zack a pm. I dont think I gor a reply with his name. I have sent out and looked at stuff on craigs list, Bloodydecks and BOCA. Lot of stuff out there. I would prefer getting something that has a history. Most people selling stuff say they do not know anything about the hours. Makes me a little nervous. Talked to guys that have been around the waterfront and say about $3000 to $4000 for a complete used power train. Some with very little hours and clean. I need to keep looking and waiting and have the money to buy on a few hours notice. That is how to get the good deals. Thanks for your help. I mainly was asking around with people that have put various engines in their Skipjacks to hear about the pros and cons. Each manufactured boat can act different with a similar engine. I live in San Diego, Does Zack live in Long Beach?
