[QUOTE="fishnmusician, post: 147399, member: 3595"] Hello All, Just bought one of the Alumacraft 1540 jon boats from Academy Sports here in Augusta, GA. My previous boat was a 1980 bass tracker 16 foot, which was a little more than I needed for what I do (mainly fish for flatheads from the bank at Lake Thurmond) but like to run around and explore the islands and such with my wife and sometimes my dad or brother during the day. I have a Honda BF5A which is fine for the boat with myself in it, and has been a great motor, but doesn't quite cut it with a companion. Looking at getting the BF20 or BF15. There is quite a bit of $$$ between the options on these motors, almost $1000 between the BF20 base model and the BF20 with tilt/electric start. I am 6'3"" in fairly good shape, is it worth the money for the options? (I do not use a trolling motor) Thanks! Lewis [/QUOTE]
