For sale: Tohatsu 8hp fourstroke tiller kicker. Great shape, runs very well. Electric start with alternator. Manual lift. Comes with a regular 3 blade prop and a 4 blade high thrust prop. It has a controllking controller. It will need a gas line with the connector(I forgot to take it off the old boat before I traded it in.) I used it for 2 or 3 summers. Best guess is 100ish hours. New lower unit and crankcase oils. $1200 I won’t ship it anywhere(because it would be insane to!), but can meet you within a reasonable distance. Currently located in Bloomsburg, Pa.

Day 2 updates: Managed to get the downrigger base tracks in. Ran the transducers for the Furuno and Fishhawk. The hardest part was peeling back the carpet where the kicker bracket sits inside and cutting the wood deck thinner to be able to fit under and still look clean. Hopefully this whole thread helps someone else in the future. I couldn’t find much on how to do all this, so I had to semi wing it. So far it’s been a success. Next time I get around it will be how to mount the electronics in small real estate around the dash. I have to put some thought and planning into it.

Also, the dealer mentioned a small gadget called VesselView that hooks onto the computer in your outboard and Bluetooth’s info to an app on your phone. It shows alarms/faults if you get any, temps, fuel usage, rpms, engine hours, maintenance schedules and speed. I didn’t get to try it out yet but thought it was a great idea for tracking every little thing on a brand new motor. Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

I just purchased my first ever brand new boat. I bought it pretty much stock with the Mercury 150 fourstroke. The dealer put brakes on both axles because of the requirements on trailers in PA to make it legal. This will be a living thread as I get more and more figured out and put together. Eventually I will get my Furuno, fishhawk, radio, canon riggers, gps and kicker all installed. First day home: I knew the kicker would be the toughest part. We ended up having to remove the port side u-bolt, rear side panels and rear deck. The thin metal piece the floor screws to on the transom was in the way, so we dremeled two small squares into it (still can reattach the floor) and will have to trim the deck around the kicker’s bracket. 5 hours later, it was on. It’s painful drilling a hole in a brand new boat for the kicker. It will be way easier running transducer wires with the rear deck out of the way. Also, taking the side panels off allows complete access to under the gunwale to through bolt small tracks for the riggers. You could mount the rigger brackets directly, but I want to be able to take the mounts off if I feel the need.

I just purchased the same exact boat and was trying to figure out the same thing with mounting tracks. I’m going to start a new thread that involves mounting a Merc 9.9 kicker and the downriggers with tracks. The versatrack setup would have been may less invasive and simpler. Small world someone else was trying to solve this also! Sent from my iPhone using Lake Ontario United

Updated price to not be outrageous. TTT.

This is a 1998 Sea-Pro 190WA. fiberglass with a cuddy cabin. 18.5' long. I haven't ever had this boat surveyed. There is no wood in the structural parts to rot. It's all composite. No soft spots anywhere. Bimini top with full enclosure. Vinyl is pretty clear. I used the front and sides ~1-2 times/year. What's included: 2007 Mercury optimax 150. Fuel injected, great running outboard. Power tilt/trim. It had the air compressor replaced in the spring (it threw a bearing), new water pump August 2018. The lower unit oil is getting changed this week for the winter. Unknown hours, but was fresh water it's entire life (dealer told me a local guy used it on the Susquehanna river before upgrading to a 4 stroke). Baystar hydraulic steering hooked into a Raymarine autopilot. Great for solo fishing! Brand new porta-potti. I opened the box to look at it, and put it back in. Never used. Electronics: Brand New Furuno FCV-528 sonar with a thru-hull Airmar 50/200 transducer. Lowrance Hook7 used solely as the GPS. Uniden UM415 radio Pyle bluetooth/AMFM/aux input stereo Fishing: Dual Cannon manual downriggers Uni-troll 10STX's with matching 12lb Cannon balls on swivel bases. 2 Scotty polymer rod holders Panther Marine kicker motor bracket (for mounting your own kicker!) Trailer: 2015 Venture Bunk. I purchased this brand new in 2014. It has surge disc brakes on both axles (PA required). New tires 2017. Inspected through next spring. The history of this thing: I bought this in 2014 from a family who used it in the Delaware Bay. Before them, a doctor owned it who also used it in the bay. The original motor and trailer weren't the best from being in salt, that's why it has a new trailer and newer outboard. I am the third owner. It had some grounding issues that were fixed with a ground bus (who knew twist and tape wasn't a great ground??) and ultimately set up for trolling. Everything works exactly the way it should or else it was fixed/replaced. I have nearly every receipt/slip from everything that was ever bought or done to it. Some people like tinkering on cars, I like tinkering on boats! I have the titles for both the boat and trailer. It is set to be detailed/waxed, etc. this week. Don't mind the pictures showing a little dirt. The rainforest weather the past few weeks won't let anything look nice. I am selling because I am planning on buying a new aluminum deep V that can take the place of what the 2 boats I own do. Something that can fish local little lakes and big lakes. This boat current resides in Bloomsburg, Pa on the trailer. $9000. Any other questions or such, feel free to message on here or email [email protected]. Thanks!! **Not everything pictured is included (like the tackle and stuff). Just what I have listed above.
