If you are looking at early 90ish boats, check very very carefully for rot in the structures. They are notorious for it! There's a few threads on offshoreonly.com about it.

P.S. I know of an early-mid 80's red 302 with TRS drives. Needs a lot of work, mind, has sat on the shore for at least the last 5 years, if not more.
