It may be old but everything is still working, we did |

replace the
carpet and put extra pad under it; let me tell you, if |
|
| |
you want to
be more comfy on your deck put in some extra |
|
| |
pad.
The 95 150 Suzuki is not a good motor, we want to |
|
| |
replace it
but don't have the money. It blew up 5 or 6 times, |
|
| |
4 times under
warranty and they say it has something to do with |
|
| |
the
electronic fuel injection, but my advice is to stay away from |
|

them. We get
58 out of her in a full load with me, Dad, Mom |

and little
Bro. We get about 60-63 with just me and Dad also |

this boat is
