ill be posting pictures later but i bought a 1992 13.5 rage with a commercial 55hp evinrude.. i guess it was modified because i found out later the rage model was a jetboat.. i sent the motor to the shop to get it fixed because it had a vibration.. it has some pressure cracks on the deck and some stains. doesnt look like they took good care of it.. i paid 4800 for it.. now im curious if it was a good buy and what i should with the deck stains and cracks and what else i should look out for

Well given your location its tough to say - I cannot say what the Whaler market in Puerto Rico is.

I do look forward to pictures though as the conversion sounds interesting.
