    Exclamation Found this Fish Hunter ...

    sitting at a lot here in Abilene, TX. The boat appears to originally be from C&O and is indicated to be a 2003, so assuming it is a 194 Fish Hunter. It has a Evinrude FICHT, but no decals as to the HP and a Johnson 45hp kicker. Top cap looks to be pretty oxidized, so bet the seats are not in too good of shape. If there is anyone that is interested, I'll try to get more pix and info.

    Yup, she's a 194 FH.. looks to have the aluminum drop in back deck (nice).. Not sure of the kicker mount? Seems to be a panther, but really can't tell. Ficht is a killer.. most likely a 200 or 225hp. If down in Texas, it could be a Coastal Champ, but if sold originally by C&O, most likely a pure bred Fishunter and not the saltwater version.
    Seats up on the decks are not Champion seats but some other off the shelf seats.

    Nice rig.. anyone with a 225 EFI or Opti sitting around would have a little gem there...

    The fishing seats appear to be consistent with the Llebroc fishing seat in my 07 210.

    If the motor is an '03 it is a BRP motor and much improved over the FICHT. They (BRP) revamped the line when they bought OMC and improved the motors. Probably a 200 model number on the motor would tell a lot.
