Need some advice / guidance on first build Alweld 1652j

[J Hartman]

Anyone have any suggestions about seating options for my passengers? I would like some better options for them besides fold out chairs and coolers, pictures appreciated.

 

[J Hartman]

Another question I had, what do you all like to use for a river anchor?

Here are a couple of pics inside my boat. You can use the flat bases with pedestals like what is attached to the floor, I have 2 offset in the center and one on each deck. That way you can remove them and still have an open floor when you don't need them.

Nice video and good looking boat!!!

Thanks for the pictures, still looking for any other tiller drive boat pictures for more setup ideas. Trying to figure out what I think will work best for me

Look at www.jetdoctor.net

I added this grab bar to my boat, and a new 12 gallon tank.

I'm going to be selling this boat, and I'm junk at haggling. 12,850.00 to anyone on this site.

Had a new addition to the family. perfect time to get a larger boat. =)

 

[J Hartman]

4.5 years warranty on the motor.

 

[Tbradley]

What size boat and motor you looking at getting? Brand on both also?

 

[J Hartman]

I'm thinking 18 or 1756 with a 115 at least. No specific brands yet, although I like the Alweld jc models

You going with Evinrude again?

 

[J Hartman]

Most likely

I used to work with a J. Hartman with the State in Cookeville. That's not you is it?

 

[J Hartman]

Nope, I'm just south of Nashville

 

[J Hartman]

I took my boat out several weeks ago, the engine dropped a cylinder. Been at the boat shop ever since. How do I go about getting a replacement engine? I've been without a boat for a month. They have not even diagnosed my problem yet. I'm about to begin legal action. I'm not getting screwed with a new motor that doesn't run.

Have you personally contacted evinrude? My grandparents had a issue that wasn't getting resolved by a dealer in Texas and after contacting evinrude directly. The dealer suddenly had their motor fixed that they wouldn't touch before they contacted evinrude.

 

[J Hartman]

I did, I got a whole speel about how they were going to make it right and get it fixed asap. and All that good stuff... On monday the dealer will have had my boat for 3 weeks straight, and a month in all, ( I got it back after one week when they said there was nothing wrong with it. But the first time out it still dropped a cylinder. )

 

[J Hartman]

The engine had a bad EMM, and it was finally fixed, I'm still waiting on some details to be sorted out as of now...

I'd like to convert my boat over to console / remote. And set it up more like a bass boat. Does anyone know what i'll need to do this?

I know i'll need that, and a console, and a wheel and teleflex steering cable. anything else?

What made you change your mind on the tiller? Just asking cause if I ever decide to go the jet route I was leaning heavily toward a tiller. Thanks!!

, I like to bass fish, so does my wife. I feel that layout is more friendly for both of us.

I'd sell my boat now that is sorted out 10,600.00 still has a full engine warranty until August 2018. It may be easier to have someone like trout and son's build me a boat, or cow town to set me up with a legend craft. I am either covering this one or selling and starting over. Depends on if I can sell it. Lol
