[QUOTE="redrum, post: 390827, member: 14669"] I love a tiller setup on a jon boat but think its a bad idea for an outboard jet. It puts too much weight at the back of the boat. You can see as well from the back. When you smack a rock it will freak you out when the motor tries to mount you. My experience comes from running a 25/18 Merc tiller last year on my 1444. I much prefer stick steer. I drive with my right hand and foot throttle so it doesn't take up the entire front of the boat. [/QUOTE]
