I am looking into buying a 2001 Yamaha 15 HP Four Stroke, and hope to be powering a Lowe 1448M jon.
My question is will the 15 HP be adequate to power the boat with a deck and floor I plan on installing in the future?
The other question is the motor has been used on and off on a dingy in saltwater I assume, and I am a little skeptical as to the maintenance the motor has received being a dingy motor, (flushing after use, preparation for prolonged storage, etc.). Besides a compression test and a test run, is there any other precautions I can take in order to insure a motor in good shape?
