I love my Mercury ProXS 115. I would replace that front wheel jack and the wheel bearings for starters. I like Bimini tops vice T tops, but I notice in Florida T tops are all the rage. You are the man when it comes to electronics, but you'd be surprised what you can do with Mercury Vessel view and a navigation app. Good luck. Keep us posted on the progress.

If the current motor runs I'd do a sea trial first and then go from there. Graphics can always be added later. The important things, as you already know, is to make it reliable and safe on open water. New engine = $20,000

I own it's big brother for the last 15yrs .... 02 26' 250hp Johnson, Polar badged as a Fish Master. Same mold from the rear. Center Console, flip rear seats, rails ect all the same just longer. Been a great boat for me and the family. I have full cushions for all the decks on mine which converts it into a pleasure boat in about 5 mins. Mine likes to "slide" on sharp turns so make sure you check that issue out on your boat. Hope you wrap and show the details of wrapping as i plan to do it this fall. Subscribed and liked (P.S. LOVE the keys ..... either Keys or Fort Morgan AL will be our retire spot in 5yrs)

That’s kind of a hard question cause it depends on the condition of your boat! IF you have a solid transom & deck …. Matt would probably say swap the motors!

We worked on a boat a few months ago that we discovered had a rotten deck & they already put $100k into before we got it! We told them sell the boat. How old is your boat?
