I have just got a 79 checkmate. I think from looking on the net it is a model 16 with a 115 mercury.IT will need a littel work to get it ready to go.seats and carpet should not be a problem. I remove the gas tank it is very clean going to replace the hoses since it's out.the wiring will need replaced becouse it has been hack up pretty good.I'm not real worried about it but if there is any where to get a diagram it would help. Also anything that would be good to check or look at on this moter or boat.thanks for any help you can give me
