[QUOTE="tallybassfishing, post: 379571, member: 17416"] Hello everyone, New owner here. I just recently bought a 14" Alumacraft Jon Boat, I have a 5hp and #30 Minnkota, I use it to fish some of the local holes here in Tallahassee Fl. Don't really know any other boat owners so I figured Id ask here. What position should I have my motor when I am by myself? the Boat can handle I think 650lbs, with me and gear we are about 300lbs give or take I am having the nose of the jon boat to high in the front. I want to be even when I am on the water. Where should the motor be? Do I need to have the propeller close to the boat, or further out. Excuse me for not knowing the proper terminology. Any Help would be great. Frank [/QUOTE]
