Nothing headache about that if you got money or do everything yourself lmao
Only thing I pay yearly is my boat dock spot
Here's my boat

Pic from the harbor

To the OP I wouldnt spend more that $700/800 on that boat, it's limited by its size not to mention the junk he is throwing along with. The paddle looks like it was chewed, life jackets look old and the cushion looks like it has years of farts and sweat baked into it. All that stuff belongs in the garbage not pawned off to the next buyer

Do it bro, it's only 1.3K if spending that money won't be a burden to you then go for it. I really really miss my boat and had great times cruising the seas in it. Do you live close to the water and do you have acces to a nearby ramp or somewhere to drop it into the water?
That was the most annoying thing when I had mine, I lived in a place that only had 2-3 ramps to access the sea and they were very crowded and expensive, had it in a marina for a while which was more comfortable but uber expensive. So consider that too how easily accessible the water is from your home.
DO IT

I'd shop around but if you're into fishing, any boat with a gas motor and a foot controlled trolling motor (critical especially for bass fishing) beats fishing from shore. Just depends on budget.

For a boat that small I would go with 9.9hp motor. Check your local lake and pond regulations, many will not allow engines over 10hp so you limit yourself with a larger engine. Also you really don't need a big engine for that small of a boat unless you are hauling two cows from tinder for an island 3some.

Wouldn’t buy a used motor cause there’s no telling if they flushed the salt after every use
Seawater + engine = getting stuck in the middle of the ocean
Boating is a pain in the ass so if you do it go all it with accessories that make it either to move it around
