It's a good idea to lower the resolution on the camera when taking pics as well because the site here has a size limit.

I will be back out there this weekend and take some pics ... the exterior of the engine looks very good ... in fact it has the same bright bronze paint on it that I see on the moyer marine front page.
The boat had a survey done in January of this year so I know the engine ran at that point. The PO said it ran until roughtly 2 months ago. I think he also never closed the cooling seacock to the motor as I found it in the open position... my hopeful assumption is that he only used the boat and never did the required proceedure for start/stop/maintainance ...
