The outboard was /is 1993 with power trim and tilt.The tubes were done by ribshop have the receipt.Need a good clean.the console is orignal with an inboard s/steel tank.New battery last year.outboard runs good and quiet.The floor needs repainting.The trailer is userble but nothing fantastic.The hull has quite a few marks on .I would say its a good buy.I spoke to the owner late last night and bid just before i said its now sold.i would say the boat was as advertised

Looks like a good buy then.

The shape on the foor I would think was a molding to stop an anchor from sliding all over the place. Perhaps thats what the straps are for?

mine has the floor moulding too, seems to be standard on mod ones

If it's an MOD one, then I might suspect that these are reinforced areas to allow a lifting point to be fitted.
