Sea trial issues

I have started the process of buying a 2006 M with Yamaha 50 and would like
any insight on Mac-specific things to look out for during a sea trial.

The Mac is getting a survey finished today, and I am hoping to meet with the owner
for a river/coastal sail this weekend.

Thanks!

There is not much that can go wrong with these boats. The motor is the most expensive component. Take care to have this checked. Compression, maintenance etc.
