Looking for a larger aluminum boat that can more comfortably accommodate a friend or two. Right now I have a tiny 10’ jon boat with oars only. My car is rated to tow up to 1000 pounds, and I figure a ~14’ boat and trailer should be under that.
I’d prefer something with real controls like an older bass boat or center console, but I’d consider a plain old jon boat with outboard for the right price. Let me know what you have… it doesn’t need to be fancy looking or fast, primarily I care about functionality & affordability!
Thanks

| I think I have just what you are looking for. 14 foot Tracker Guide V14 aluminum boat with trailer and 25 hp mercury motor. I started working on it last year and never had time to finish. I installed a 9 foot front casting deck. I have all the numbers, papers ect. I'd like to get $1,500 bucks. I'm pretty firm on that too cause the boat is sweet. Send me a private message if you're interested |

Never heard back from you Stratos… wound up buying something else, sorry!
Just looking for an outboard motor now, if anyone has a small tiller handle outboard they would like to sell.
Something in the 5 hp to 15 hp range should work, the boat is rated for “up to” 15 hp. Not looking for anything brand new/fancy, don't have much cash available to spend. I'd be happy with a 30 year old motor if it's a solid runner

Picking up my boat today! It's one of those small plastic bass boats, a Fisher Pro Scout 11.4. Has a livewell, bait well, two swivel seats, etc. Can't wait to clean it up and get it ready for this spring!

| I have a bow mount trolling motor i am looking to part with, now sure how the bow is set up on your boat, but it can work untill you get a outboard, and then cab be used for manuvering once you get to your fishing spot. It is a foot control, what is on almost all bass boats. |

Actually the boat is pre wired for a trolling motor - it has a plug in the front and rear, and a small “transom” on the bow. I’m going to look at a small Evinrude this weekend, but how much are you looking to get for the trolling motor? What brand/model/thrust is it?
