[QUOTE="momule, post: 415454, member: 20155"] Since my jon is a riveted 1448 Lowe Big Jon you may not be interested but.... Power comes from a Yamaha 4 stroke 40/30 jet with a side mounted console in front of the front bench. MinnKota Endura 55 hand operated troller at bow. Room for two to sit on front bench and our weight is balanced in the rear by the outboard, a 12 gallon fuel tank and two batteries (starter and series 29 deep cycle). Motor is mounted on a 20" custom all aluminum transom with a 2 inch wedge. Back bench is decked to the transom and hinged to get to the batteries and tank, floor is covered with perforated aluminum. With myself and my gal in front the boat is nicely balanced and can run in 6 inches of water at about 24 mph. I intend to add pods to the rear to improve hole shot but it's not bad as is. [/QUOTE]
