Re: 20 footer on E-bay
A 200hp 500lb(with the prop and oil) Yam sitting 30" behind the transom is way more than the boat was designed for. 500lbs 30" back is the same as 700lbs bolted to the transom. You'd be better off...

Re: Suzuki 225 4 Stroke
Another thing is Suzuki's prop pitch's are not comparable to the real world pitches. The 16" props may be different, but their V6 14-15" props are about 3" high. A 14.25 x 20" Suzuki prop will run...

Re: New OB Installation Ques.
Take Ed's prices to your dealer and see if they'll match it. If not ask what he wants to rig it if you buy it from Ed. Buy the controls and wiring harness from him.. Ed's not going to be any better...

Re: Winterize: spray motor w/ CRC ?
Actually I would recommend Corrosion Block for all the painted metal surfaces. Remember everything you spray on an IO engine will eventually wind up in the blige, so be ready for that.. Then use CRC...

Re: Prop for Honda 130
Rick, this sounds like the classic example of a worn out alum prop or it's completely the wrong design. I'm pretty sure Honda uses Merc gearcases so all Merc props will fit it. Overtons.com sells...

Re: Dunk, Welcome Aboard
Scott, it was a 71' 21ft Cutty. When I got it had had the Volvo stern drive taken out of it. The 71 21's was the hull OMC used to build their endurance boat hulls from over in Naples. It had flat pad...

Re: the end is near
Yes, the boat looks nice, but you shouldn't have put Awlgrip on the bottom. Awlgrip specifically states it's not for underwater use. Now this isn't a problem as long as you trailer the boat and never...
