      For $1500 and if it runs good, I would say you made out like a bandit. Congrats!

          Who said it was running!? I paid for the boat and trailer so didn't put too much value in the motor. Will be replacing fuel lines and filter, spark plugs, and battery and try to get her running soon. Probably will run some seafoam through it and hope the motor doesnt need much.

            Update: got the motor running! Cranks fine. Just new fuel lines, filter, plugs, and impeller. A little idle adjustment and she purrs! New carpet from home depot. Got a new garmin echomap finder to install.

            Already caught some fish. As my dad assured me - this boat will $100 bill you to death! Oh well!

                  Flat bottom semi v front boat with
                  Tiller handle outboard
                  Mud motors are way too noisy IMO

                    Nice..

                    I had a hull almost identical to it. With tilt and trim that thing will run shallow

                      I've blown up my mud motor twice
