83 fisher with 60 hp mariner

[zeeman15]

I am looking at a 83 fisher center console, 16.5 ft with a 60 mariner that gets no spark. the seller is asking $800 with trailer? is this nuts or a good deal assuming CDI or some other ignition problem. good compresion, good crak, no spark to all cylinders. thanks in advance, i am looking at rthis as a project boat.

You can try for less money but if it comes with a trailer that should be worth it. The older Fisher boats were all aluminum. You might have a few leaks to repair but that is half the fun.

As far as repair for the 60.... ton's of help here on iboats. Start by getting a manual.
