[QUOTE="user 20022, post: 405185, member: 20022"] Well I have removed the rear bench seat. The plan is to configure a deck behind the front bench. I went to a boat repair shop and asked if they had any gas tanks. I found a very nice looking used 17 gallon tank made by Tempo for $40. The lakes I will put the tin in are large and some of the best fishing is 15- 30 miles away approximately, so I figure having the extra gas will allow me to cruise around after I making it to my destination.

Unfortunately they were all mercury outboards a Johnson and a $600 9hp 4 stroke Honda. He has a nice looking 80s 50hp Merc with power tilt and trim $600. I've found a couple other outboards that aren't mercs, but I didn't find out if they have tilt and trim. That is a must on the outboard check list. Sent from the dust in front of you! [/QUOTE]
