Well I went and looked at the Larson I had mentioned earlier. It needs some work. I will list the things I saw and you guys tell me how big of a deal each is... OK?

-Outside needs paint. Just cosmetic, but the existing paint doesnt look as good as I had hoped.
-Lots of things on the inside are... loose I guess is the word. Nothing seems to be securely mounted like it should be.
-Floor seems weak and there are definitly some holes in it. (I assume its a plywood deck?)
-The driver & passenger seats have been recently redone, but all of the other fabric needs to be replaced. Its cracked and faded.

Im not opposed to getting a fixer upper. I would like to save some money on it and I have time to get it all fixed up before the new season starts. But I dont know what is involved in fixing these items. He is asking $1800, I am confident I can get him down to probably $1500 or less. What do you think? Keep looking or see how low I can get him?

Also, is it possible to start a I/O engine out of the water? I would like to hear it run before I buy it.
