There was at one time.. Nothing is visible anymore

How can sooooo many people lose their titles ????

I agree.. What's funny ? Is.... Everything I own.. has a Title. Everything. And what's more important.. Is...... I know where the Titles are. In my Safe. In a fire proof box. There's nothing hard about putting up your title's..

No papers on boat... nothing. I'll have to pass...

Got a chance to go dig up a coleman crawdad.. Maybe it's not ruined.. sitting in a ditch.. loaded down with trash... If so ??? ....... thinking 🤔 I'll go with a 212 predator mud motor.. .......

There is no tohatsu dealers near me.. Three mercury dealers. Not one of them carried the smaller motors. Yes.. I had to drive 150 miles one way , to buy my motor. In Saint James... He also traded with me ..for my old motor. (The only dealer who would trade me) Which really helped on the final...

I still have to get it out of the box..ha Told myself to read the owners manual, cover to cover.. By golly, I've learned a few things. Maybe tomorrow I can get it mounted up.

I've bought the exact same tohatsu 6hp.. No internal tank. Your quote. ( I'm in absolutely no hurry to get anywhere) Is spot on.. I too am in my 60s retired. Small 14/36 alweld jon boat. Beats a paddle. I do very much enjoy the slower pace.

Traded off the old Yamaha..that has sat in my barn for 17 year's. Locked up and everything was chewed up. Traded it and 900$ For a new tohatsu tiller.. 2024.. The weight is 57#? I believe.. Even I can pick it up.. it's also a short shaft. With the external fuel tank. It's white. Finally, I've...

I did buy a 1983 evinrude two smoke. Yes, I put it on the RichLine

That's exactly what I was planning on doing.. I've even dug out of my barn.. my old 13hp sps swamp runner mud motor. But it's heavy.. 120 pounds plus? If I buy the 6hp.. they say it's 58 pounds. Over half , less weight. Thank you for your reply.

Need something trustworthy.. I know there's places on the web that'll rip you off.. Who's reliable and honest?

I'm thinking..get the 6 tohatsu also. My son will go over this old evinrude. In his job, he's fixed a bunch of them up So I should be good to go. Hopefully have a fun summer.

Thanks for your reply.. Yes.. fuel consumption is important for me also . The reviews on the 6hp motors is very good. I'm after total simplicity, just to go sightseeing, yes? Should be good to go Skinny river on YouTube, his little 6horse went almost ten miles on .03 gallon of gas. I thought...

Thank you . Appreciate your reply. My plan , is to use the flat bottom jon for the rivers.. the vee bottom on the lake. 👍
