Really this is being directed towards Dr.Honda, but others feel free to chime in. I am looking into picking up a good condition 2000 Islandia with the 240hp EFI. The engine had a bad cylinder before, the current owner rebuilt, bored, sleeved, piston, etc, and is now selling. The engine needs a few things finished up on it: plugs, electrical hooked up, some cooling lines, etc. He says he guarantees it will start once everything is hooked up. He is asking 7500 for it. I would like to try to get him down to 6-6500 is that a fair price? Also, is it worth buying a boat like this with this engine or am I just asking for headaches? Basically the boat will get a fair amount of use with us and we need it working properly, really do not want to get stranded. Look forward to hearing from what you have to say, thanks guys.
