I watched a walk through on Youtube of one.  Search JOB Fishing.

What is on them?  Rust?

If it can be cleaned, I'll take it.

I can do $25 tyd.

Thanks.

Get the 150 and a 9.9 or 15 kicker.  The kicker will pay for itself over time on fuel and maintenance savings, plus you have backup in case the motor goes down.  Speeds are easier to control as well. JMO.

i use the ones fro amish outfitters.  They are fairly inexpensive.

I love my Traxstech.  Pricy, but the best. IMO.

What about upgrading to a little bigger boat like the one you have? A fishmaster 210 authority 2050 or 2150 or warrior boats? All have around an 8 ft beam and i think offer more fishing space then a walk around style boat and I think handle big water just as easy and will be easier to tow and store. You do lose the hardtop but can get an enclosure made

My wife fishes with me over half of the time, so a cuddy would be nice for bathroom would be nice.

 

I would also like to be able to sleep in it when on weekend trips.  The authority and fishmaster are nice boats though.

Curious on why no outboard mounted on a bracket?  To me a bracket offers more cockpit room and makes adding a kicker pretty simple plus boat performs better.  Only downside is netting a bit tougher and you’ll pay more for storage.  Get in the back of a bracket boat and you may rethink.

It seems to me, and for the record I've never fished off one, that the outboard on a bracket moves the motors so far back that they get in the way of netting fish.  Maybe I'm making more of an issue than it needs to be.  

My current boat has a rear casting deck about 2' wide and I really wish it wasn't there.

I currently have a Crestliner Raptor 1850 multi species boat and I have been satisfied with it.  I was aware of it's pros and cons when I bought it.

Over the next few years I would like to get a larger boat for lakes Erie and Ontario.  Because I like to fish both lakes and switch ports to stay on the fish, I do not want a boat that has to be slipped, but I may slip part time in Conneaut, OH as it is closest to me.

Here is what I'm looking for:

3-10 years old

8.5' beam maximum

Cuddy

Fibergass

Prefer a hardtop

Open to I/O or outboard, but not on bracket.

Tow with a half ton.

Getting some ideas as to what to look at.

Thanks.

Great input ..... Thanks for the info! I'm curious how the retractable dog leash set up works ... Do you mount it to something or just leave it lay in the boat. We have Tite Lok triples.

 

I used zip ties to a convenient spot on a rail.  I'm sure there are other more asthetically pleasing ways to mount it.

I also use a retractable dog leash for a haul rope on my climbing tree stand.

Where are you located?
