Going to go look at a 1980 short shaft (I need) 70 hp VRO.
Its still on the boat so I can run and drive it.
He said it runs great and is up grading to a 100hp because the 70 works to hard to get it on plane. Its a 16' fiberglass bass boat.
Wondering if its the engine or is it just to small?
Also the VRO kinda scare's me. Any info on them would be a great help.
What is it worth? has controls and elec's.
