I'm looking into purchasing a new boat one of which has a 1998 225 optimax the other has a 1998 225 EFI.
The question I have is should I stay away from either one. Both are low in hours (around 300). Basic service done to both. Is there any major known issues with this year?
I was planning on doing a compression check on both and doing a sea trial. Other than that is there anything else I should look into?
Thanks in advance.
