351 Ford Windsor w/ merc outdrive
Greetings,
Just joined this site. I'm currently not an owner of a sea ray as of yet. I go tomorrow afternoon (monday) to look at a 1975 Sea Ray 240. Has the ford 351 windsor engine, outdrive is unknown at the present time until I get eyes on it.
Onto my questions.
What is the weight of the boat for towing purposes? currently have a 2006 chevy trail blazer LT EXT v8 with 6800lb towing capacity.
Are parts for that engine hard to find or should I re-power it with a newer engine?
Is there anything I should look for on that age boat that is noted for going bad/rotting? I know to check transom and for soft spots in the flooring
Thank you for your time and patience with me
