    Default Welp, found a nice little 14 foot john boat


    Trailer lights work and has a. 9. 1/2 hp Johnson motor. Motor does need a fuel pump though. Got something I can just back up without having a ramp and unload now. Name:  ImageUploadedByTapatalk1389228176.378326.jpg

    You need to put a bow stop and a good winch on the front of that trailer

    Put a water pump in when you do the fuel pump Don. Nice little boat for that back water.

    You said 9 1/2 HP. I had one of those, a 1970 model. It was not very fast, but it cranked and ran like a fine swiss watch. They replaced it with the 9.9 later in the 70s I think, but the old 9 1/2 was easy to work on and seldom needed it.
    Let us know how it does.

    Got a lot of little things I wanna do. Gonna sand down the trailer n paint it. Then the wench n bow stop plus some rear straps. Thinking about mounting my old 71 lb motor guide up front. I could pull a skier with that on there lol
