There has been an older Bayliner Capri for sale by a motorcycle shop on my way to the lake I fish. I finally stopped by today to take a look at it. Being an older model 1983 it was in pretty much as expected (fair) condition. But I have learned to look things over from top to bottom to assess potential issues.

I noticed a little standing water in the back end of the floor board but the floor seemed solid. While checking the outdrive out I noticed the drain plug was still in!!!! I took the plug out and water ran out for at least the 10 min I was still there and still running when I left. I know if I was interested in buying the boat the asking price just went down.:)
