Looks like a about the same price for a tohatsu motor. Think I would rather go with the Suzuki. I just picked up a evinrude brochure and really liked this new 15hp H.O. motor they just came out with. I would really like the clean e-tec two stroke. Dealer said its about 3 grand though.

Looking at a new15 hp suzuki four stroke 20" with electric start for $2299. Anybody have any info on these motors, any good, good deal? Going to put it on a 1448 tracker grizzly. Thanks

I went to the Bass Pro shops the other day to look around and check out my Grizzly 1448 Im gonna get, man cant wait. I was looking at the Motorguide trolling motors and Im just going to go with the foot control.

I just got my new MotorGuide catalog in the mail and was checking out this VariMax bow mount hand control unit. Any members have one of these. Thinking of getting a 55 lbs 12 volt 50" shaft for the grizzly 1448. Looks like it would be nice and keep the deck a bit cleaner. With the limited...

That boat has 25hp max, but I am going to go with a 20 HP. Pretty big difference in price between a 20 and 25 when buying new, I know that for sure. Thanks for the input guys.

I am going to be getting a new Lowe 1448M come jan for my project, I am wondering what size transom to get. What would be the advantage of the 20 inch transom over the 15, thanks.

Well I think I norrowed it down to two of them, the bass pro shops xps 4/4 or the 5/5. The only difference is the amps 8 and 10, for $25 difference is price, My question is what is the main difference in amps, Thanks

Ok, sounds simple enough. Thanks guys.

I have been trying to figure this out now for awhile, When you get your deck carpeted how do you get it mounted down to your bracing. I never see any screws in the carpet, like it should be I guess. Do you glue it down? Not sure on this one, Thanks for the help. I like this guys front...

One other thing guys, this boat can have a 15" or 20" transom, which would be better and what is the advantage over one or the other. Thanks

I have been considering a Tohatsu 20 hp 4 stroke, When the time comes I will be looking for a nice used 20 to 25 horse 2 stroke for sure, and see if I can find something nice. I am going to be building this boat from the ground up so I might just want to stick with a brand new motor, will see...

Well after being a member on this site for a few weeks now and reading alot of information, and going and looking at more than a few jon boats, I decided to go with a Lowe 1448m for my project boat. I called Cabellas and they are going to recieve thier new 2010 boats around Jan 1. He gave me a...

Wow, thats a very nice job. Looks great. Very clean looking. Do you have some photos of the process.

I have been looking on craigs list and ebay, This boat is rated for 10hp or 90 pounds on the motor. I noticed that the older 2 stroke 15 hp are less than 90 pounds. Do you guys think that would be ok on there. I would like to get at least an 8 or 9.9 or maybe this 15. I found an older...

How does that motor work with that boat. I am trying to figure out what motor to go with for my 1257 polar kraft project. I would like to go with a two stroke.

This boat has a 15" transom, so I am gonna say short shaft. Bass pro shops has an 08 9.9 Mercury for $1813.50 right now.

Hey guys, I am looking at getting Polar Kraft 12 foot jon boat for my project. It says 10 hp max for the motor. I was wondering what a good motor choice would be. What does tiller mean? What size shaft? I am looking at a 6, 8, and 9.9 from mercury. I can get them at the bass bro shop. Thanks.

Hey guys, I just went a looked at a Polar Kraft 1257 jon boat. This looks like a pretty nice well built boat. The middle seat comes with a storage compartment already in it. I am looking at getting a new boat soon to start my winter jon project. Any body here have a Polar Kraft Jon. You guys...
