Ayuh,... What do you wanta Know,..?? It's a 1980 Rinker 17' bowrider...

The Vin. # is on the starboard upper outside area of the transom...

The 4 cylinder Merc can be 1 of 3 different motors,.. The Serial # will tell...
The Drive is probably a Model 1, but a picture will confirm....

Welcome Aboard.....

1 last thing,...
Your pictures are Too Big....
Delete them,+ post Resized pictures please.... 480x 640 is about the Best size...
