1860 is a pretty big Jon boat ?

 

2019 Tracker Grizzly 1860 with welded in floor & extended front deck average dry weight is 794#. Price 4,299 with out trailer 

 

Any manufacturer will be similar in price.

I believe 2007 Optimax computer records run hours with hours at rpm. 

Take off the cowl and look at powerhead for evidence of dissemble, painted bold head with piont missing. Any evidence of leaks, cracked hoses, overheating etc.

Go for a test drive.
