i had a 2000 8 hp merc that used to do that and somehow the fuel connector would always get messed up and thats where the gas would come out of, id have to prime the ball to keep it going, get a new fuel connector and try it out first. i cant tell you how many connectors i went through with that...

As far as a motor goes with a 16' boat, I have a 1995 20 hp Johnson on my 16' jon boat and it pushes it with no problems. But when i start to get some weight in it, thats when i wish i went for a 25 hp motor... it still pushes it fine and when i say weight i mean me, 2 other guys, full cooler...

I am a mono guy myself, 12lb suffix. Thats all i fish on any and all of my rods... Me and my buddy go fishing about 2-3 times a week and all he fishes is power pro, not sure what lb test but he always gets broken off way more than i do. Not sure why... But i have to make fun of him everytime he...

Not sure where you guys are fishing this rig, but i live down in florida and i have one of the 4-bait rigs and i have fished it many times and havent ever had a single bite on the darn thing! I dont know if i was doing something wrong with it but it doesnt seem like you can mess up the...

It better scoot for $5,000! :LOL2: :LOL2:

Im glad to hear that! I actually picked up a stick steering setup today for $30 off of Craigslist not even knowing if I could use it or not.. I figured if they're $250 new id better jump on it! I attached a pic of what came with it (joystick, cables, and the arm that attaches to the motor) but i...

haha, no i dont plan on putting a jack plate on it (im assuming thats what hes got on that boat..) if i put anything on the transom itll be a cmc tilt/trim bracket. I like the tower idea because i fish mostly fresh water but i do occasionally fish the flats and it would be nice to have then...

Thats what i was thinking, but ive got a 16' jon boat thats 5 feet wide so I think it would be alright... and my sea legs are still good! 8)

Has anyone put or built a tower in a jon boat? Ive seen one pic of one on google images and i think it looks pretty cool, anyone got any input/ideas/opinions?

In my area (southwest, FL) a clean motor like that would go for probably around $800, and everyone snatches them up quick down here especially one that clean with all the new parts

Im sure this has been brought up before but i have a 1995 20 hp Johnson tiller outboard on my 16' jon boat, My question is does someone make a tiller to remote steering conversion kit? The motor looks like it set up to be able to make the conversion, but i have looked around and cant seem to...

Are you sure you didnt just pick that up from Bass Pro Shops? Lol. It looks awesome! Just like new! Great work!

i bought this one a couple weeks ago from best buy... radio w/ remote, and speakers for $63. i just jerry rigged it to hear it because my boat is not finished yet but it sounds great for the price...

X2!! ^^^ Thats all I use for my truck and boat!

I dont see why not, i just re-did my transom using 2 sheets of 3/4" and it is solid as a rock. Just make sure you through bolt everything good and evenly. and if youre using regular plywood you definitely want to water seal it. I used regular pywood for mine and water sealed both sides of each...

Wow, it does! Looks just like it! Maybe thats what it is then. Its pretty weird, there is no make/model/year or anything on the title, just the length... and theres no HIN or any kind of markings on the boat, but after looking at yours i can definitely see the similarities

Went to my buddies last night to weld up all the framing and its looking pretty good! still have two more small supports to put in the back though.

Yeah, i love it. Im used to dealing with 12' jon boats and i decided it was time to step it up so i got this bad boy. Its 16' long and 5' wide, and i really wanted it because it was a blank canvas for me to do whatever i want to it. Just got a call from my buddy and he said hes been working on...

Im not an expert on props by any means lol, but the higher the pitch, the higher the speed BUT you might notice itll take a little longer to "get outta the hole" and go for a stainless prop, way tougher!

Hey guys! Im new to the site and let me tell ya, i love it! I've gotten many ideas for previous jon boat builds from here and this site is all around awesome! Thought id post about my latest build... I picked up this boat and trailer and It is a 16' jon boat, i have no idea of the make/model/...
