[QUOTE="MacFern, post: 74321, member: 1196"] Thanks for the replies. I was hoping to get by with the boat and motor I already own, but looks like that's not a safe setup. I have not priced used boats or motors lately, but I would guess I could purchase a used, slightly larger aluminum boat for less than a new 3-5hp motor. I'll start looking for a 12-14ft Jon boat to use with my 8hp motor. I'll still make the repairs suggested and maybe stick a trolling motor on the 10' boat - great for the kids. [/QUOTE]
