2000 21 V Riders Edition

[EAH]

My wife and I purchased a 2000 21 V Riders Edition earlier this summer, and our family loves it! The boat has the 377 Scorpion engine with the blue head/engine cover. It has great power, but I haven't been able to find out much about that motor. Does anyone have information on it -- particularily any concerns, problems or things that I should watch out for? The boat only has 70 hours on it. I know the starter was recently replaced. Are there other preventive maintenance items (other than fluid changes/winterization) that I should have performed this fall when I take the boat out for the winter? Thanks.

Is that a merc engine? If so do you have the serial ?

If it is a 2000 21v and only has 70 hours on it, I would run it like crazy this weekend and then change all the fluids. Then change them all again at your winterizing.
