[QUOTE="bAcKpAiN, post: 40005, member: 169"] Welcome aboard! You have come to the right place. There are a great many folks here with knowledge and experience to help answer some of your questions. I am not the most knowledgable but #1 priority for me would be getting the transome structuraly sound. I would try to replace the wood with the same size that is already there even if you have to sammich' the wood. I would not put a console in a 14' boat simply for room and movement restrictions (especially for a flyfisherman) I have learned to love having a tiller because once you get down to the business of fishing the whole boat is wide open. As far as the motor goes I have been learning some myself. I would personally replace the plugs and wires and then see if there are any carb adjustment knobs or screws. On my 82 25HP Johnson if I don't have the carb adjustment screw right my motor stalls out as soon as I give it fuel. Always elliminate the cheap and easy before spending money! [/QUOTE]
