"I just recently purchased an early 1970's 18 ft. Pontoon boat that I am fixing up. The boat came with johnson control box and cables but no motor. Can any recommend to me what size outboard motor would be adequate for this size boat? I cannot find a brand name on the boat itself anywhere.
thanks in advance....
