Short version
looking at a used 2004 boat 273 hrs 350 mag/300 bravo three boat is on consignment and they shared the inspection report when it came in Dec 2013 for stage 3 winterization, What caught my atten about the report is it lists failed impeller and a service charge for replacement and cleaning of debris. Also lists compression check all cylinders, 190-185 all 8 spark plugs, cap rotor. oil and filters Outdrive was serviced,new bellows,ujoints,gimble bearing. IAC replacement along with misc repairs couple of latches, straps for bimini and Buff and detail job, new trailer jack, recovered trailer bunks.
Total of $5500.00 of parts and labor.
also was told exhaust manifolds gaskets are leaking,batteries may need replaced.....


My gut is saying run away that is was possibley overheated......

what do you think
 
What would one expect for compression numbers?
1 195
2 190
3190
4 185
5 195
6 185
7 190
8 190

Found out the exhausst is not leaking at the head but between the risers and manifold
