The previous owner stated it had low engine hours. The bottom was just cleaned Feb 1st with a new zinc.

USCG documented. Registered as Florida (no fee) antique vessel 2011, saves over $100 in registration fees.

MINOR ISSUES:
Needs anchor light, cockpit dash needs sealant, depth sounder is useable but recommend replacement, bimini has a few spots worn thru, could use cushions, curtains, etc. Stern railing needs welds at 2 of the base mounts.
The only thing else the boat could use is to have the stove installed (when I got the boat I removed the alcohol stove to put in a propane stove, but never installed it. Also, soon after the bottom was painted, the paint at the water line wore off. The painter said he would repaint at next haul out.
