I am looking at buying my first boat. I have found a 1984 Marlin with a 3.0 140hp and OMC sterndrive. I have heard some negativity about the OMC sterndrive and was wondering if those of you who have them think it is justified. One person told me to just run the other way and find something different. Just looking for some qualified information. Also is there anything specific I should be looking for if I go to see it? Thanks for all of your expert knowledge
