Morning all. Finally finished my quest to find a decently priced used 20hp to go on my new G3 Guide V14. The used market has been pretty slow with it being Winter here in Maine and the surrounding area. But as luck would have it a well taken care of 2010 F20 came up on Craigslist. Previous owner...

Hey everyone, sorry in advance if this is a topic that's been beaten to death, but I'm currently in the market for a new outboard. Ideally I would like an electric start 20hp 4 stroke to replace the electric start 15hp 2 stroke I'm currently running. I can get a new Tohatsu with ES for about...

Hey all, I have the opportunity to purchase a 2001 Suzuki 15hp four stroke from a local marina. Electric start, tiller, short shaft. I really don't know a whole lot about Suzuki motors having only owned Yamaha and Johnsons. Are these any good? I saw the motor listed today and have yet to see...

This is my first post to tinboats in quite some time! I first joined when I purchased a G3 1236 Jon (My first boat) back in the winter of 2008. I ended up selling that boat after one season to upgrade to something bigger the following year. Fast forward 7 years and 4 boats later, some I was...

Hey members, this may end up being a longwinded post but I'll do my best to keep it brief. This is my first post in years after going to the dark side and owning a glass boat (Aquasport 165 Osprey center console) that I am selling this week. I am going back to a tin boat, and have narrowed it...

Finally completed the transition from fishing boat to duck boat today. Finished working on the boat blind. Thinking of heading out tomorrow to try my luck with the geese during our early season. I managed to find a honey hole this morning while harassing the stripers on the ocean 8) Can't wait...

So, after 4 months of anxiously waiting for the ice to go out, today, I finally registered my new boat, and got her in the water. :D I Decided to try my luck trolling for landlocks on Maine's Sebago Lake, and my efforts paid off! While removing the hook, I managed to send it right through...

As some of you may know (from my earlier posts), I recently moved to a new apartment that sits on a small (roughly) 10 acre pond. Well, we finally got a weekend where the mercury climbed above 32º, so I decided to try a little ice fishing. Wasn't expecting to catch anything big, maybe a couple...

So, about a month ago I moved into my new apartment, and things couldn't be better. Great place, awesome location, even sits on small 10 acre private pond loaded with bass. Needless to say, things have been awesome here.... until the past couple weeks. I'm not sure what started it, but for the...

14 inches in 8 hours. Remind me again why I live in Maine? Spring cannot come fast enough.......*begins pacing*........ Any cures for cabin fever?

Hi all, today was the day I paid for my boat, and brought her home. Picked up a 2007 G3 1236. Got it at a good price being a leftover '07 model. Also picked up a Yacht Club trailer to haul her with. Thinking about shortening the tongue on the trailer so it doesn't look so awkward. Can't...

Hi all, This is probably going to sound like a very novice question... but here goes. I recently purchased a Yamaha 6 hp 2 stroke outboard. The model is a 6 mshy (manual ign, short shaft, handle, year 2000). Pics: I'm looking at hooking it up to a G3 1236 Jon. The boat will have a light...

Hi all, New to the forum. I am in the process of putting together a jon boat setup for myself. This will be my first boat! I'm looking at a Lowe 1236 Jon. So far, the Cabelas here in Scarborough, ME has the best price on them (that's including my employee discount 8) ) Just yesterday I picked...
