Hey all! I'm going to be buying my first O/B jet Jon and I would really appreciate any advice y'all might have.
I'm planning on doing a bit of guiding out of the boat so I will need room for 3 people. Thinking 1752 at least
I am a big dude (350lbs) so it will need to be able to push my *** and 2 others up stream. 60/40?
I will be primarily using the boat on the Lower Colorado River East of Austin. It definitely has some skinny water with a lot of hydrilla in the summer months. Tunnel or no tunnel?
I am leaning toward a tiller stear to keep the boat open for ease of moving around.
I will also be putting oars and oar locks on it. As well as a trolling motor, and possibly a motorized anchor.
I really don't want to buy new being that it is my first boat and all.
I really appreciate any advice!!
Thanks
Tyler
