Default finally buying a new fishing boat (new to me)

Well,
I am finally doing it!
I am going to buy a 1999 Crestliner 1750 Fishhawk with a 2000 Mercury 90 hp
2 stroke engine a new Lowrance 7" screen 17X gps fishfinder, (it also has
another new Lowrance 7" screen fishfinder mounted up front but I forgot the
model number.) new stainless prop, and a new Minnkota power drive 24 volt
trolling motor. This boat looks brand new. It has less than 50 hours total
time on it. It also has a new marine radio (vhf). A guy I work with is
asking 10,000.00 USD. He's even throwing in a box loaded with muskie
lures.This should be my retirement boat. Pending a compression test and a
trial run of the boat of course. The skeg and hull look brand new!

The only issue I can see is the woodgrain on the trim the gauges mounts in
is faded and has white spots on it like the sun? or heat? from being covered
up distorted it.

Any suggestions as to what to look for on this boat... any faults.... known
problems...etc..?


Fredo
