@timkalow It's actually an 18.2 hp. I removed the restriction plate between the carby and ajusted the governor. The other boat was a 12ft fiberglass runabout with a 25hp yammy. I do actually use the boat as a spa bath during winter.
@mufflerbearin It was a standard 2.95mtr Blue Fin V-nose Punt. We did the mods ourselves. Side decks, trim tabs, bait board with rocket launchers, center console, hand rails, casting deck etc. It's a head-turner, I love it :)
@bazamonday1 Why do you have a youtube account? Just so you can whinge about the music on clips? Mute the music, no one gives a shit but try muting yourself as well if you have nothing positive to say... never going to learn!!!!
@lodestar260 I'm not sure of the exact fuel consumption but I can spend 3-4 hours running at full noise on 10 litres of premixed premium fuel. This 15hp model merc is a governed 18hp (made by tohatsu) You can remover the restrictor plate from the carby and adjust the governor screw to get the full 18 hourses out of it.
@BandB1111111 Im not sure i'll find out. Mine is just the standard aluminium prop that comes with the new merc 15hp super. The 25 had a stainless after market prop on it.
@djbisho Standard prop might be middle of the road pitch...might be a higher pitch which may increase top speed on a very light weight boat...it increased my boat speed moving to the highest pitch for my 8 hp Tohatsu....then keep the original as a spare prop
@postopia1992 31mph isn't that fast but it seems fast in some chop when your getting a metre out of the water and the prop is getting air. I could get faster if i took everything out of it but would only be an extra 1-3km/h. At the end of the day its only a 10ft tinny with a 15hp motor... just abit of fun.
@guitonudo i'll get some footage of the fibreglass boat when we are out next. shit weather at the moment tho. To be fair the fibreglass boat is much heavier than mine. if the motors were on identical boats the 25hp yammy would blow it away no doubt. I'll also get some more footage of my boat getting some air off chop when i get an opportunity over summer. happy Boating Bro
@ruel68ify big boats can be a a hassle. I get the boat on & off with little effort and takes 5 mins to wash. Its one of my favorite "toys". Thanks for the comment bro... Cheers!
you should make a video removing the restriction plate

@v133n You are quite correct my friend, just adjust the governor screw and remove the restricter plate on the carby . Made by Tohatsu.
