Location: Hayward, WI | At this point I'd like to stick with Tuffy. Been very happy with my 1760 and there's some traits of the 2060 I like compared to some other boats. Definately would like a maxed boat with a 150. Part of the reason for the upgrade would be improved hole shot and speed. I think a 115 might be faster than a 75 on my 1760, but overall it might be marginal where I think a 150 would be a significant improvement.
Does anybody know how long Mertens had their power steering system? Finding a used model with a 150 Yamaha or Suzuki with the Mertens power steering would probably be my most ideal situation. But I'm not sure how old that rig might be now.
I agree with some other comments in this thread that talk about 20 foot tillers being a rare item. Maybe I should someday just go to a wheel boat but there's a lot I like about running tillers.
