After looking around last week and the comments here I went to the boat shop and got a new Yamaha 50 hp 4 stroke with a tiller. Looks to be a good fishing motor and they had a $750.money back on the 50 hp so it cost less than the 40hp.
It has a really neat tiller too. Got to get it mounted next week. I got an alum. prop but may up grade to a stainless.
Anyone in the market for a 1978 25hp Johnson with remote controls?

I hear tell, you've clum som....hehehe

I was a lineman from 1955 to 1960,
then I got smart and became a narrow back...

Be sure to post some pictures of the new boat.
Your gonna love that Yamaha, and the whole boat is gonna be better because you got the 50hp, instead of the 40hp...

"I was a lineman from 1955 to 1960",

Yes Harry I have! Not too much any more. I've been the foreman for the last 14 years. Still on call! Good one last night. Guy was gone when we got there but my guess is a drunk in a tractor went off the road and hit a 3 phase pole (tire tracks off the road to the pole 3ft up on the pole) canted it around broke the neutral it sprang back and wrapped around the the three primary wires and locked it out back to the sub. This was at 03:30 oh the joys.
Thanks for the link to the props I'll look them over.
