Welcome
No issues with the boat at all - fantastic vessel - both for cuising and fishing What options and motors are on the boat? How many hours? If Verados make sure that the fuel float switches have been "updated" and all service bulletins have been completed.
There were also issues with the GenI Verados lower units (1.75:1) - especially on a boat as heavy as the 305, so look for any metal shavings in the gear oil (assume you are having it surveyed) and the engines may need to be raised.
