Here she is. I was thinkin if I can't get a good trade with Fred I'll probably post it around this area for bout $3000 that would give me some room to negotiate. It needs new seat and a little work done on the trailer to kinda stiffen it up cause it sags a bit in the middle.

I'll try and post some pics tomorrow when I get in.

Thanks guys, you're right its a big hassel selling something can't depend on people to be here or when they say they'll take it and never come back. I never considered trading it in but the trailer isn't really road worthy for a 10hr ride to Fred's place. Thought about having the new one...

I have a 14ft flatbottom jon with a 85 evinrude 30hp with jet foot. Thinking about selling it to put money towards a new alweld from Fred at current river. I dont really know what to price it at because you dont see a whole lot of jets in this area (Kingsport,TN). Looking for any ideas or...

Well it's a 30 powerhead so i'm loosin some ya know. It pushes real good when it runs right still tweakin it a little. That's kinda my deal is when i'm by myself it rides nose high more than i like which i understand cause all the weight in the back. That's why i'm wanting to move alot of...

I've got a 85 evinrude jet 30hp

Sorry for not adding that. I ran it on the water for a little while. Its got fresh gas in it as well.

I'm thinking about cutting out the 2 bench seats in my 14/36 jet jon and putting down foam between the ribs and aluminum on top with carpet over that. I want to get all the weight to the front as much as possible. I was wondering if i can put the fuel tank up front and build a small deck over...

I have a 85 evinrude 30 hp with jet foot. I ran it yesterday getting ready for spring. It seemed to bog down after a little runnign took the hood off and it ran wide open just fine. There was alot of exhaust coming from it and I could feel the heat from the motor. I'm wondering if it could...

I've got an 85 evinrude 30 horse with a jet foot. It runs fine for a while then all of a sudden its like you turn it half throttle and boggs down. Any ideas why this would happen?

Thanks guys, I just wanted to get some opinions and advice. I live in East TN and will probably go pick it up myself when I get ready to buy. I'm pretty confident this is what I'm looking for and its worth the trip versus having it shipped to me or buying from a local dealer.

Called Fred at Current River hes got a good price on an alweld 1652JC with a 60/40 Jet. I was just wanting some opinions on whether or not this is gonna be a good boat. Most of the time it will be just me and a buddy fishing the river not alot of weight and stuff but from time to time might be...

Yep thats it, I really appreciate the pictures, that explains everything. Mine just has a piece of rod with two 90 bends in it then held on with carter keys. I need to get me some threaded rod and i bet that would fix my problem. I would be able to adjust it then. Hey I really do appreciate it

Hi, I've got an 85 evinrude 30 hp outboard that has been converted to a jet motor. When I bought the motor it had the throttle cable and forward and reverse cable with the control box. I'm wanting to take all that off for now and use it as a tiller handle but when I unhook the shift cable from...

Thanks Lil' Blue You wouldn't happen to have any pics of your setup you could post would ya. I was planning on making it pretty rigid with a square tubing frame then putting 1/8 inch sheet over that. I wasn't really thinking of having to adjust it which shows you how much I know. I was gonna...

I just bought an 85 evinrude 35 horse jet that I'm going to put on my 14 foot flatbottm jon. My question is how to mount it. The transom on the boat is 15 inches, from the motor mount that sits on the transom to the bottom of the jet intake is 22 1/2 inches. How far does the jet foot need to...

That is one nice looking rig fender. Thats exactly what im looking for. How does it float as far as over shoals and stuff does it get hung up alot or float kinda shallow. Ok I'm gonna have to find a rag I'm droolin everywhere......lol

You're right, Optaylor, I probably dont need it per say, but i was thinking that whatever I get I'll have it for a long time, just thought it might help protect it from any major dents or gashes. The guy I fish with has an evirude 18 horse jet tiller handle on a 14x48 Alumacraft flatbottom, so...

Thanks guys, I looked at a better picture of the alwelds. They do have the ribs so yeah that would be kinda hard to do. The transom on the particular boat i'm looking at is 27" with a tunnel hull. I was thinking with the poor handling of a jet motor a prop motor on the lake would be better...

Hey, everybody first I'd like to say I love the site. Now for my plan (Let me know what ya think) I've just about settled my mind on an Aweld 1756JC (probably from current river since they've got the best prices so far). I had thought about putting a prop motor on it and then buy a jet foot to...
