Is the transom and keel set up for an outboard?

 

[WoundUpMarine]

sure looks like it, the transom is notched down for an outboard.

I got in touch with the owner a couple days ago...he said the transom is new from the deck up, the deck was redone 8 years ago and the fuel tank is below deck.

Can anyone comment on seaworthiness?

It's a Sisu, Royal Lowell design. That should speak for itself.

I had a 22 sisu for my first lobster boat. I never fished in anything crazy with it but never felt uncomfortable if I was out in slop.

I have a 22 Sisu center console

The hull is a beast!!! I have had it in some real offshore snot!
The keel keeps it tracking straight and the bows flare does a great job for an open boat in keeping us dry !

The whole replaced the transom from the deck up turned me off. I believe this was listed last year around this time also.
