No use for a pontoon, no trailer or motor strong enough. Plus i already asked :mrgreen: no go. he just wants this one gone.

Up here in MI it only has to be titled when w/o a motor. and Im either on private lakes or lakes where the DNR or law enforcement never comes. I havent bought a boat yet with a title. i think that our rules are different than other places. Most are titled just... lost b/c its no use really. Not...

He's asking for 200.00 and its 16ft long by 42in wide. Transom is 16.5 inches not too bad. Not sure on thickness of hull.needs minor work. I think it a good deal and want to go pick it up.its an hour away. Any tips on checking it out? Its my first jon boat. hes not sure on year, motor rating or...

Scotch brite would take those rust stains right off of there, but thats all im good for, there better qualified people out there other than me.

have the gasket, have the motor, my manual is being shipped in from far away. Whats the process? Just place on head and bolt on.... no sealer, nothing? need some help please. if you can be detailed it'd be very helpful thanks

I second the trailer sub forum

I am measuring the bottom of the transom for width and for lenght from tip of bow to top of transom and measuring straight. Am i not making myself clear on the dimensions?

They are both vee hulls, not flat jons. First is 12' by 52'' second is 14' by 42'' but they do make 1442 jons i do know that.

Yeah we have some winters that are really cold, and our summers that are really hot as well!

No its an amazing place despite its issues. We have all 4 seasons, sunsets and sunrise that are gorgeous, beaches and our "own" fresh water ocean. we have forests and metropolises. It ahs a little bit of everything. i seriously cannot see living anywhere else.

Its a 14ft by 42in and is a vee hull. Its rated for up to a 15hp motor. Would a 20 horse work as long as its not opened up fully. How about on a thick hull of a 12' by 52 inch ? As long as I reinforce the transom boards?

Jeff Foxworthy's view of Michigan ... Are you aware that this guy is now picking on Michigan? Read on. (pretty funny ... and accurate) Some are exaggerated but a lot are accurate :) *If you consider it a sport to gather your food by drilling through 18 inches of ice and sitting there all...
