Default What do you all think about this boat???

Hello everyone I was wondering what you all thought of a 1986 bayliner bass 16 ft trophy w/ a 85 ho force.I just picked it up for fishing(I still own my maxum 18 ft also )It is in excellent condition solid floors everything works everythings original boat was well taken care of.I was reading some older post seems there are many neg comments about these boats.I Googled the same boat & didn't find many for sale .Is it because people are keeping them or are they all in the boat bone yards? I have owned it for a few days & the wife loves it .It just has a minor back fire problem when starting cold other than that it seems to run real good .Anyway what are your thoughts on this boat open to all comments good & bad ......Thanks

hey...congrats on the new member of the family...I know several people with this type of boat and can't complain for the mission it's designed for.....so.....a boat is a boat!!..if it floats...and runs...it's all good....

as for the backfire...check the carb's sync.....it sounds like one is running leaner than the other...

SP :hello:
