Question on Changing Oil

I just bought a 1996 Hunter with Yanmar engine and a Kohler genset

The genset is new in 2005 with 50 hours now and the engine is original with 700 hours. Oil was change was done on both in 2005. Owner has started both at least once of month and been out 5 times in 4 years.

Oil was new for genset 50 hours ago and engine oil changed 200 hours ago and both 4 years have passed.

Any advice on oil and filter change. Thanks James
