A one-time oil analysis will not show you anything much, you need trend analysis.

Transmission oil, transmission cooler, batteries... its not just the engines, no records.

You are correct... but, ya gotta start somewhere.

Trial run and then oil check taint too bad a place ta begin... if the thread originator is seriously looking into purchase of this boat.

If owner used boat as a condo only for years, with no log records kept... then he needs to take steep discount.
