I’m very interested in what you bought and how you set it up.  Will this be your primary White river boat?

MY ONLY motorized White River Boat. I am selling off the Supreme. I am doing some maintenance work on it and I have a buyer waiting on the completion of this work. 

Give me a little while. I have a couple of more tricks up my sleeve that I would like to finish up. Then I will put together a little article about my boat. With pics. 

Short version.

Alweld Custom 20 foot Jon. 52 inch bottom.  100 gauge aluminum. Heavy Rail. Diamond plate on bow and corners

Tohatsu Jet 50/25  one of the last of the 2 strokes.

Minn Kota Ultrex 80 24 volt up front

perforated aluminum floor

Livewell

3 dry storage areas in boat and two more storage areas included in Front Deck.

Drafts a few inches of water. And runs in 8 inches or so. The absence of rocker and the ribs on bottom help it track better. 

Big, Roomy, and Stable. With rods off the floor and lots of clean deck to fish from.

Must have been fun to configure it yourself. Sounds like a great rig.

I have a friend that just bought a used Legend with a Tohatsu jet and that thing flies.

Congrats

Remind me again why we haven’t fished together yet. You live less than 1/2 mile away and we can’t make our schedules work. 

My poor little Merc 20 needed an impeller and wear sleeve in the worst way. I was just too dumb to realize it. It going to do a lot better for the next owner. 

Still taking it easy on the Tohatsu for the first two takes of gas. I think I have used 7 gallons so far. At 18 gallons, I will see what WOT is like. 

A 17/56 Blazer with a 60/40 jet is a less expensive option and all the boat anybody needs. As is often the case, I went crazy with the Cheez Whiz. 

I am Very satisfied with my purchase at the point though.

Looking forward to seeing your new boat myself.  

Didn't know that they have stopped making 2 stroke jets (except the Tohatsu).

Are there any horsepower restrictions where you guys hold Jigfest on the White River? I've never been there and am totally clueless on that body of water.

Tohatsu is done too. I think either Les or I got the last one that Current River Marine could get their hands on
