If it is everything he claims it is probably a great deal, Bubba. Problem I see is that the early Optis were troublesome and it appears that everything has been fixed or replaced. I there were a warranty on the powerhead It would be a better deal.

I would tend to agree that the low pricing on that would make me mighty leary. That motor is priced in the range you would expect to possibly find a 90-115 hp opti of that year range running not a 225hp.

I would tend to also agree that the current owner has had multiple problems that he has had to keep throwing cash at time and time again and has just decided no more.

You could get lucky and get a good motor with all that has been done but you may still have to put more into it to get it right as well. At minimum I would want to see all receipts to document what he claims and buy it expecting to possibly have to put some money into it so as not to feel dissapointed if it was not right.
