  • To much stuff on your boat if it was a bare Jon boat it would go considerably faster.

  • excellent power output for a 5hp wow

  • use the trollmotor!!!

  • damn! looks about as fast as my 16hp go devil hahaha

  • If you're gonna get a motor, get an old one. My Grandpa gave me an old 15hp thats about 20 or so years old. Only one tank of gas through it before i got it, gets my aluminum jon 35mph+

  • Pegged out at 14k RPMs

  • did u put that deck on there?

  • Where can i buy one new?????

  • Good video I wanted to know if you made that by your self

  • if id do this id have a briggs too or a kohler them are two of the best damn motors ever and i mean the older ones not this new chinese shit that breaks too easy

  • a lot of grunt for a 5hp

  • great little motors from what i have heard. I have a 14 foot jon boat i use alot when i dont want to spend the gas money for my bass boat. Been considering buying a briggs and strat motor for it.

  • wow nice lake you got there looks like very nice fishin spots

  • nice boat. get a 9.9 and itll be a perfect one

  • The 9.9hp outboards at boy scout camp can make the little boats hydroplane out of the bay :)

  • Nice video, but keep the B&S motors for lawn mowers and go-carts. If you wanna real outboard, get a johnson.

  • @rednektwinz no dont get a johnson get a merucry or a mariner

  • @rednektwinz i agree with you on some of the smaller motors. Johnson/Evinrude are great little motors but i have had 2 big evinrudes 150 horse and i will never own anything but a merc on bass boats..

  • @bull5574 i know what you mean. my uncle had a 150 johnson he spent $2000 to rebuild and he treated it well and flushed it out everytime he got it on land but the damn thing had a ton of carb problems and corrosion issues. so we stick to johnson for the small outboards

  • Cool motor, hold on to that.

  • Its a lawnmower engine thrown onto a lower unit. Thats what briggs does, they build crap!

  • @Motorfordtoyota

    I wouldnt say that Briggs engines on lawmowers last for years. My dad has a International cub cadet with a briggs engine that lasted 20 years before he bought a new one. Just keep the air filter,oil, fuel and cooling fins clean they will last a long time.

  • @dennisndodie Yeah, the one on my dads lawnmower lasted 6 months. It died, so we replaced it with a tecumseh

  • @Motorfordtoyota the one on our old lawnmower was from the 80s and still is more reliable than the one of the lawnmower my dad bought last summer :P

  • @14wasp The old one (pre 1998 or so) were terrific. But the new ones with their platsic cams suck.

  • @Motorfordtoyota Very true! that new one has a plastic cam.

    It doesn't even sound as nice as the older one :(

  • @14wasp ikr. THe way to go with small engines now is Honda, or Kawasaki.

  • why did you buy a lawn mower engine for a boat? That thing was vibrating your hand.

  • granted the boat looks heavy, but it should get up on plane. adjust the trim down to the lowest peg, and make sure the throttle is adjusted proper. when i bought mine, at wide open, the carb was only 60% open.

  • Hi, I am about to buy a 16ft jonboat with a suzuki 6ph 4stroke - would it plane, what would be the top speed, is it easy to steer at slow speeds? Love the boat already!

  • yea it should plane because of it being light weight and having a flat bottom. it would be easy to nsteer at low speeds also

  • Thanks Boatbros 23. Indeed it planes easily.. Do have to say steering at low speed is dissapointing so I ordered a ruddersafe..

  • yea u just made fun of a 12 year old dude ur pretty dum

  • @5horsepower *Dumb* learn how to spell lol jk.

  • 20 hp would be better

  • how many pounds of wood is in that boat after you made the deck???

  • F that, these briggs will be destroyed in saltwater,,,lol,,,

  • i love the bass boat deck on your boat what brand is it?

  • I love these motors aside from the crap carb they put on them. So much more reliable when fitted with the older non emissions carb. but shhh....I never did that...

  • @eatpogs what carb did youuse

  • all briggs have a govener spring bend it and you will get 4 to 5 hp out of it

  • Where did you learn how to spell, you high school dropout? You should go get your GED because clearly you are DUMB.

  • hey fag i am 12 so shut the fuck up

  • Hey guys:

    Would you coment what about the running in trolling speed (for trolling fishing), this type of outboard serve for that?

    Regards

    Chris

  • I think its great for trolling. Perfect 1-2 mph

  • That sounds just like my push mower. Haha! That little motor moves that boat really well! Nice!

  • man that thing has a bad knock in the motor son better check that oil

  • its a four stroke

  • That is pretty quick. Nice set up man. I am going to have to get one of those.

  • Pull the govener and see what it can really do. :)

  • @Bornn368 Any info on how to do that for me thanks alot?

    

  • @MegaSparky73 i couldn't tell you over the net.But look it up and it'll give you all the info you need. But be careful not to blow the motor! You can over rev it doing that....But its a little lever on the back of the motor that goes to the carb.

  • @Bornn368 But youll need a new one soon after you do that, Briggs dont take high rpms well.

  • not bad for a 14 footer....i got a 12 with a 6hp on it...Watch mine

  • where did u get your boat

  • A lot of people don't realize that little motors can really move a light boat.

    The difference between a 10 hp and a 5 hp lies in power not so much in speed.

  • No weight up front, if the boat would get flat and plane you would go a little faster..

  • that pushes that boat pretty well nice outboard :)

  • will a 6hp push a 12 ft jon boat over 10mph

  • I have a 12ft jon boat with a 1975 6hp evenrude and with one person in it it will do about 17 but 2 people about 12 to 13....so yes....

  • my boat is rated for a 3.5 horse. im getting one of these for christmas

  • amem on getting out to the fish and not spending alot on gas own an all original 1951 seaking lit 12 with a 1951 sea king 5 hp deluxe model

    thad

  • wht is the biggest engine you can have on that boat cause ima buy me one after while

  • is that a kit to make it or is it home made? Make a how to video or something?

  • It's a factory-built Briggs outboard. You can buy them from Cabela's, Gander Mountain, Bass Pro Shops (I think), Fleet Farm, and other outlets.

  • it can almost fully plain

  • i have a pelican 10ft pontoon boat thingy and my paran wants to give me a mariner 5hp. do you think it would be good?

  • She pushes your boat just fine. I like that briggs.

    I use a nissan 5HP on a 12ft portabote.

    Granted, our boats are not fast, but they fish well, and get you there.

    Also, we don't pay a ton in gas.
