Thanks to all who responded. I've been away for a while and I'm just reading your posts. To give an update: I tried the snake routine, it didn't work. Tried compressed air, it didn't work. Tried a jet of water from a power washer, it didn't work. Ended up tearing the whole rear end off. Hundreds...

Nice job. Enjoy.

Hello all. Posting here hoping somebody has some experience with this boat? 1989 Tracker Tournament V17. I picked up the boat last November. The previous owner was ready to scrap the boat. He told me that the boat leaked, it had a bad transom and the motor (70 hp Johnson two stroke) wouldn't...

Tried them. The tiller handle is nla. thanks rob

Got the job finished today. Wasn't too bad. The old shaft came off pretty easily with heat from a FatMax torch. The PO that cut the shaft down didn't cut the wires so I still had the wire leads for a 54" shaft. I'll have to shorten them when / if I add the IPILOT. Since I didn't have to replace...

Looking for a tiller handle with cable for 86 - 92 Evinrude / Johnson 9.9/15hp. Also some other misc. parts. Any help appreciated. thanks rob 724three44six773 or pm

Go to the Humminbird site. I don't think you'll find them cheaper anywhere. The head units usually show up on ebay without the transducer. Good luck rob

Thanks very much for your response. Good to talk with someone who's actually had one of these motors apart. Also, good suggestion to post my location (SW PA). Seems like a lot of people shortened their shaft but not too many make it longer. I finally got hold of a really good tech at MinnKota...

Hello all. I've got an issue that the minn kota people are trying to figure out but no success so far. Here's the issue. I bought a PowerDrive V2 motor used. The guy I bought it from said it was a 48" shaft. The shaft looked short when I was making the transaction and I didn't measure it. But...

I've got the same engine. Your timing is right at 25 for the 30hp.

One year I bought a 12ft. Sears boat the night before trout season opened. The boat was sitting upright at the owners home and was painted green on the inside. Looked OK and I was in a hurry. Got it home took it off the truck flipped it upside down and it looked like somebody shot it with a...

Just picked up the thread. Did you ever put the boat on the water? How did it do? Did you end up selling it? Did you get your money out of it. Nice looking boat. I've got an 88 Tracker sitting at my BILs farm full of mice that needs restored. Probably start in the spring. Still fishing now with...

Tohatsu 18 is a very strong running 18 that is also very light weight. I had one that was actually too much for my 14ft. Myers. Make sure you get a current model as the older Tohatsu parts are sometimes hard to provision. While shopping consider that Tohatsu and Nissan are the same motor with...

Thanks for this site. Glad to help. + 1 for black or white on gray but no big deal. Best wishes. Rob

Must be nice, just a bit out of my price range. Not jealous though. Sounds like a sweet setup. Here I am looking for a sonar gps combo for around $400. Trying to choose between DSI or regular sonar?
