Nope on the Seaswirl. Guy said it had professional engine removal and engine bracket. Neither are true. I think he’s honest but naive. Engine/stern drive was removed, a plate of aluminum on the outside and a piece of plywood on the inside, and a floorboard installed. No outboard pod at all. Right now, the boat is just a giant canoe. Lol. So, passed on that ‘free’ boat.

The bayliner… talked with wife and half convinced her to go look at it this next weekend. 400-500$ isn’t bad and, it has the engine with it already even tho it doesn’t run. And, it’s a legit outboard.

Another possibility is I found a 12 foot aluminum boat on a trailer for 500$. I could hang my 15 hp on the back and use it without going into the open ocean. Will check that one out too maybe?
