Buying my step dads 1992 180 tf for 1500 buck!!  Boats and Motor maybe has 40 hours on it!!  It is in excellent shape!!  The only problem is that he bought it with the 115 Evinrude and it is severly under powred!!  It has a hard time getting on plain but once on plain it dose fine!!  I want to up grade the motor to a 150 but really dont think its worth it considering the price of motors these days!!! Also, I plane on getting me a new Z 7 in the next few years!! 

So, yall think I should upgrade the motor or just keep on rolling the way I am!!!
Some people want to be like Mike, I want to be like IKE!!!!

IMHO if you are going to swap to a Z-7 in a few years don't wast the $$$ powering up, use the boat to learn what you want/need on the Z-7 so when it's ordered you get it set up the best you can.
