    60/40 cost

    I'm in Brighton Michigan. I'll give you a little back round. I have a 1652 Polar Kraft that I use for bass fishing and bow fishing. I just started going up some small shallow river for smallies. However, I’m not sure how much of this type of fishing I’ll be doing or if I really want to fly up...

    60/40 cost

    Went and looked at the 60/40 and its a great motor. My boat is rated for a 40 and everyone says the 40 output is legal. However the 60/40 is 70 lbs more than a 40 prop. Any concerns about the extra weight on the transom?

    60/40 cost

    Well in my search to find a 40/30 I found a nice 60/40 which is the max for my 1652 Polar Kraft. 2006 Mercury 2 stroke. Friend of a friends that looks about 2 years old with little use. $4,000. Thoughts?

    Unique rear seat

    I have a 2003 1652DB that is just like that. It's a Polar Craft duck boat from what I've been told. The "V" in the back puts you at a great position to run the tiller.

    Cost for a 40/30

    I'm looking for a 40/30 jet maybe around ten years old. I know prices will vary depending on location but I'm just wondering what everyone thinks one will cost?

    Waterproof foam?

    Thanks, I have a Polar Kraft and the floor appears to be 1/16" aluminum. Both the ribs and the foam support the floor. Will the foam board support the floor or will it cave in?

    Waterproof foam?

    I just pulled up 65 Lbs of water soaked foam from the bottom of my 16’ boat. I need 1 ½” to go up to the ribs and support my thin flooring. I really don’t want to do spray foam even though I have a buddy that can do that. Dow makes a 1 ½” blue core Styrofoam Polystyrene closed cell product...

    Comments and wire sizes

    What I have now is a 16’ Polar Kraft. One battery in the rear with main wires that go to a switch panel that is 1/3 of the way up front. From there I have wires that go to the front bow and rear stern lights, wires that go to my bilge pump, and wires that go to my depth finder. My trolling motor...

    Jack plate

    This does not look adjustable. So I will not be able to switch motors.

    Jack plate

    Also, is there a standard height on a 40/30? If it's 27" and my 20/15 is a 22" and I'm already 2" short then I'll need a jack plate that will get me 7-8"

    Jack plate

    Just bought a 16' welded Polar Kraft john boat. Modified "V" and model #MV1675DB, 52" wide at the floor. I bought a small 20/15 jet from a friend and tried it out the other day. I know it's small but it will do for a while. It needs to go up 2 1/2" to make the shoe pin even with the bottom of...
