Re: What is the difference....

I need one with higher sides and the curtains, I think my boat does just fine but if I want to get out on salt or fish more in all weather I need a different boat. I'm really leaning towards an outboard now, I thought about going to Cabelas just to "look", haha. I'm in no rush, need to sell mine fir...

Re: What is the difference....

Ok, thanks... I think a prop is the way to go then. I think instead of rivers it will be bigger lakes the more I think about it...some trolling or whatever for fish as well. Plus like u said the salt offers more year around, thanks again...

Re: What is the difference....

I'm listening to all comments you all give, thanks! I'm trying to learn the fishing here so to say salt or river I can't say, I'm used to mostly river and lake fishing back in the TN and KY area. I would like to get out more In the salt but the tides and such make me nervous since I have never reall...

Re: What is the difference....

So a jet outboard is an outboard motor except it has a jet/pump instead of a prop?

Inboard jet is the one when you see a box/motor in the back of the boat, correct?

I don't have to have a north river, I was just using that as an example, should of said aluminum I guess..

Thanks

What is the difference....

Not to long ago I moved back to WA, I brought my Triton 1860 SC duck/fish boat with a 75 Opti Max with me. I'm thinking about going to a North River type of boat, around 19' - 22' long. I want to fish rivers, bay and crab with it. So what is the difference between an inboard vs jet ( if there is one...
