Need opinions on purchasing used boat

[TMoNeE]

What do you guys think of this? Im going to look at it tomorrow, im not willing to spend more than 5500, but I think he would go for it.

1987 Marlin Magnum Skier

Direct drive MerCruiser Chevy 350 Block Engine with 535 hours. Pylon pole, wakeoard racks, bimini, stereo system, custom swim deck, custom double axle trailer and the interior is perfect.

Professionally maintained each year. I am the 3rd owner. The boat is in perfect working condition. Just came back from getting yearly maintaince.

Great 1st time boat for a wakeboarder or skier.
