That's really a neat little rig. Be sure and let us know how the maiden voyage goes. Welcome to iboats.

Congratulations on the new rig, looks like it's ready to hit the water:D

That Evinrude is a good outboard and everything seems to have been maintained pretty well. That Garmin fishfinder is just like mine, nice little graph.

Good luck with it!

Re: used lowe boat

i have already had it out in duxbury bay twice it ran great and everything worked great the only problem it stalled once while trolling for a hour i guess that was too long once i opened it up it ran perfect.i was suprised how little amout of water comes in for an aluminum boat it never reached the bottom of the bilge pump so for so good.

Re: used lowe boat

Did that 3.3hp kicker come with it?

If it did I'd use it for trolling...you could carbon up that 70hp by idling too much. I have a 5.5hp kicker and I love how fuel-efficient it is when I'm trolling for long periods of time. My Minn Kota gets plenty of use as well.

Glad to hear she doesn't leak too much as well:)

Wow that's alot of carpet. Carpet on the gunwales and the lip where the rodholders go (can't think of what it's called). Plush...! Enjoy it!
