I bought a starcraft 12ft jon boat at a yard sale .I tried to get nos. for it at DMV, they said I had to have the year it was made, and what it cost when it was new. How do I get this info? Iknow it has set around for at least the last 20 yrs. All i want to do is put a trolling motor on it and go fishing. The serial no. is 64-8207, it is a starcraft pram.
I just found out it is a 1964. What would this cost when it was new?
What motor should I use for my boat?
Saturday, August 21st, 2010Artem asked:
I’m about to buy an inflatable boat (not decided about size and shape yet but this is not the point right now) and since I’m new to boating I’m a bit confused. I made some researches and that’s what I found, the outboard motors are VERY expensive, 900+ it’s toooo much for me right now and trolling motors are not only not powerful (this is not a big problem since I don’t need high speed) but they used to brake down too often.
So what should I choose and what should I do? Maybe there’s some good brands? Oh and btw I’m fishing in the ocean in bays (not open ocean).

I was thinking of a john boat with a little outboard and maybe a trolling motor. should think of something else? any suggestions would be helpful. I am not looking for a big powerful boat just something to tinker around on the lake.

I am a sophmore in college and dont have a lot of money right now. I want to get a small aluminum boat that i can put a small motor and trolling motor on and go up and down the river bas fishing. How could I build an Aluminum bottom boat or where could i get on for under about $150? Of course the motor will cost more but just the boat itself for now.
Is a 5hp outboard large enough to power a 14′ flat bottom jon boat?
Friday, July 16th, 2010 asked:
I have a friend that would sell his older 14′ flat bottom jon boat with 5hp two stroke with trolling motor for $250. I was wondering if it would be under powered when fishing on the Mississippi.
