Question

FMers,
I'm considering buying a used boat from a private party - something I've never done before. The current owner states that he's the original owner of the boat and has all manuals and service records. But being that it is the middle of February, there is really no way to test drive the boat, ensure that the motor operates correctly and that the boat doesn't take on copious amounts of water when placed in the water.
I would appreciate it if you guys could share some tips in making sure you don't get stuck with a lemon when buying a used boat from a private party. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
