Here's photos of my Medalist rescued from a certain death under a pine tree. Cleaned her up and she looks like this. Just have sort out the no start or crank problem and good to go.
The motor is a 4.3 with a Cobra outdrive. I wouldn't be so quick to say that all it needs is a tune up. For all I know it could be pooched. $3000 for a new motor would suck, but oh well.
Nice boat! Course, I'm partial as I own the exact same boat. The only difference is mine has the 3.0. Did u have the upholstery reone as it's in great shape compared to mine. And I may be looking at a transom rebuild come spring. Good luck with her.
