[QUOTE="Master-deBaiter, post: 387900, member: 15028"] For the past few years I've fished with a tiller motor and grown to like having an open layout. I'm aware the 35hp Johnson is worth more than $100 (I see people selling the controls alone for $85 on CL). I was fishing last night before I started this thread and started to rethink letting go of the 35hp. I plan to duck hunt with the Starcraft on the Bay of Green Bay, WI... So, I'm going to have it loaded with decoys & hunters and will probably need those extra ponies - giddy up! I have no idea how much work the motor needs. To keep me moving in the meantime, I bought a 25hp Evinrude. I don't know how this motor will push once loaded down. I think if I kept the steering wheel and controls, I'd have to model my layout after SmackDaddy's Pole Dancer. It's hard to believe how his boat is only 14' I'm going to lay a small block of wood against the dent and take a few swings at it. This website is too cool. I seriously spend all my free time on it. Thanks everyone for making it what it is. [/QUOTE]
