Has anyone had the same experience as me with these motors? I've had the port motor re sleeved twice in the last 3 years because of lack of compression. I made thne mistake of not getting a compression check before we bought the boat and now I regret doing so. Any thoughts would help.

For all the Michigan Guys, first of all good luck this weekend (U of M vs OSU) A couple we boat with on the East coast has been in love with our boat since we purchased it years ago (they currently have a 33 SeaRay EC). They are looking at a Michigan freshwater 43', 1972 I believe, for 109,000 and...
