I am not real familiar with the classic but here are some thoughts: There are a few pics on page 2 in my album that show the mini jacker with a 15 mounted on the newer stern. Might give you something to think about. On page one you can see when the kicker was mounted directly to the stern. It...

Our used CD came with what the old owner called "shore power". After driving 1900 miles to see it I remember being disappointed when I could not find the A/C outlets and realized it was just an onboard battery charger that you plug shore power into. Bummer. That was several years ago. We...

Mike: If you want to run your kicker thru a filter and run off the main fuel, take a close look at your filter base. Most have another capped port for a nipple for another fuel line. You can then have the Racor do double duty for both engines. If you go this route you might have to unplug the...

That is interesting. All Johnson owners have possible collectors items.

Some inland waters are already 2-smoke restricted. The extra gas can weight makes the heavier 4 stroke a moot point in this situation. Double check your prices. Usually the 4-stroke costs a bit more than the 2. Quieter, cleaner, not allot of oil sheen on the water, no mosquito foggin cloud...

Mike: Forgot to mention in those running shots in my album. I had just unloaded all the camping gear, coolers, one dog and spouse to shore. Up front was a fully serviced porta-john, a 5 gallon water jug and a 20 lb river anchor. So there was more weight up front compared to the back. 20 gal...

Mike: Depends on how you use your boat and how much weight you carry. I started with the Perma-Trim because it was cheaper and easier to install than the tabs. It works as advertised and would recommend it. It holds water around the prop for better prop grip on the water in all situations. When...

I'm not much of a fisherman but that statement made my eyes well up.

Naknek: I posted a few pics, page 2 in my album of a Mini Jacker holding a Yamaha 15 and Bennett M120 sportabs. The Mini Jacker helps with kicker turning, clearance at tab level and with keeping the prop out of the water when using the main. The wood 1x1 was needed to raise the two clamps on...

Drilled thru both swim step and the boat for the hydro line. No real need to remove and notch out the swim step.

The wood 1x1 that elevates the engine gives a bit of clearance at the tab. The real purpose is because the two screw clamps that hold the kicker will hit the stern of the boat.

12x10 trim tab. Would have gone "HUGE" if not for the kicker. I like the indestructable hinge and the turned down tabs on the Bennetts for flat bottom CD tracking.

Tab doesn't seem to affect original mount of transducer.

15 H.P. kicker mount pin is in the last hole to keep kicker away from tab.

Trim Tab cylinder (M120 sport tabs) just clears under mini jacker mount.

I run the kicker with the main raised and leaned to port. Good room to turn the kicker. I enjoy cruising from the cockpit and don't use a steering rod.

The mount comes with rows of dimples for holes. You drill the holes you need where you need them. The top two bolts are above the splash well. The others behind the fuel tanks. I think it is rated for 150 lbs.

"Mini Jacker" fixed kicker mount. Allows the engine to sit a dab to the rear.Help with turning both directions and with the angle of the stern to keep the prop out of the water while running the main.

A kicker is handy if you lose your steering. :sad
