getting a new project

Just wanted to say hey to everbody out there been reading on here for a couple days now really awesome what some of you guys do with a jon boat So hopefully Im going to get this this weekend
Fisher Marine model 14dlx has stick steering 25 HP johnson




Doing some trading but he puts it about the 600.00 range dont know if that good but what the hey Just finished rebuilding a 84 sportster so need something new to tinker on

You're not in GA by chance are you? that boat looks familiar for some reason...

I'd say $600 is not a bad price on that - especially since it comes with a motor (if it works)... that's going to be a GOOD fishing boat when you're done with it.

Post some pics of that sportster you just finished up!

:WELCOME:

Thanks for joining!

Looks like a great project boat! Have you had it on the water? How is the motor?

Welcome aboard! Looking forward to your project!

Welcome Aboard, and nice rig! 8)

russ010 Im in NC Sorry its took so long to get back just been really busy
Went and got it and this is what we got a 1972 Fisher Marine not bad but a little rough around the edges with a Johnson 25 stick steer




Motor does run and the controls work perfect thats the first thing Im changing want the same size motor just prefere a tiller steer
Allready took out all the inteior and this is what it was like



And after I got every thing out and cleaned up the biggest problem is on the bottom in the front somebody has done allot of patch work and just want to redo that so it dont leak also havent done a leak test yet so dont know what its really like

Looks like a nice project. You should have no trouble selling the stick steer and controls if you don't want it. I hear that's a spendy setup and a lot of folks desire it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x9at6Mk6fBg

Also, you could probably find a tiller handle for your motor on ebay for $50 or less. Here's one now... https://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Evinrude-Johnson-18-20-25-tiller-assembly_W0QQitemZ260499699188QQcmdZViewItemQQptZBoat_Parts_Accessories_Gear?hash=item3ca6fdf5f4
