Ok. Here I am on the road to attend the survey in the morning. I just got a call from the broker. I had the local Sea Ray dealer do a compression check on the engines today.
7.4L Horizons 380HP
Port was good. All cylinders 150-160lbs.
Starboard was similar except for one cylinder at 120lbs.
Thoughts? Is this a deal breaker? Should I walk or not?
Or have it rechecked tomorrow after the survey and sea trial? The boat hasn't been getting much use lately. Has 550 hours on it (2000 model). Maybe it could be crud on the valve. I had that happen to me one time with my Bonanza. After a good high power flight it then tested much higher.
Opinions?
Thanks!
