BASSMAN1301599783 Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 Does any body know of a tiller steer motor in the 25 - 30 hp range, or do they even make them that big? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bassdocktor Posted July 5, 2005 Share Posted July 5, 2005 They do make them in that range. Actually they even make them up to atleast 50hp. Up until this last year we had a 14' Lowe with a a 25hp Johnson that according to the fishfinder would go maybe 25mph. I think the engine was a 2000 or 2001. It was an electric start that ran great.

Right now I have a 2.5HP evinrude. Great little motor but it takes forever to get anywhere on the lake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlinrogue Posted July 6, 2005 Share Posted July 6, 2005 A 25 HP Yamaha will scoot you on down the lake,and it does come in a tiller model.It'll run you around $2100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted July 7, 2005 Share Posted July 7, 2005 You can probably pick up a very good used 25 tiller merc or OMC for $500 or so. Last summer I bought a 14ft boat, excellent 83, 25 merc and nice galvanized trailer for $325. Boat was rotted out junk but all I was wanting was the motor.

BASSMAN1301599783 Posted July 7, 2005 Author Share Posted July 7, 2005 I wish I could buy a new one. Maybe next years tax return. Ben, whare did you see ones that cheap? Around here a used one in the 25-35 hp range are still 800-1000 bucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
