I've ask the broker for more information. I sure like the aft deck, cover that and install a dive compressor and tank holders, I'd be in business.

Anyway, have ask, when it was last refastened. Among other things. I would never purchase a boat without a survey. Remember, I'm a newbie. Have not a clue what I'm doing here...... LOL

Bill - Off the cuff, a pure guesstimate/estimate... 2.5 to 3 gph at below hull speed, let's say 6 knots through the water speed (land speeds depend on current speeds and tide direction). You need a real good marine surveyor and marine mechanic. Be careful of info/opinions from a broker... especially if he is listing the boat for sale.
