Looking to pick up new/used Montauk. I like the older late 70's models in particular. I am contemplating a 1976 at this moment. Comes with a rebuilt 1997 Suzuki Outboard w/ only 50 hrs on it since rebuild. I've done some research - one thing I know is to check for how it sits in the water to see if the hull has been compromised at all and any water may be getting in. What else should I be asking and looking for?
Thanks - Steve

This is how she sits in the water (photos showing out of and in water)
