[Fieldzy14]

whut prop u runnin??? whut differnt  motor are ya think of too put on it

[mattspidermanking]

i think its 18"-19" its just the work prop that came with it. we've looked at other props, have a 23" on it, didnt help it at all though for top end speeds. where thinking 60hp-70hp

[Fieldzy14]

whuts on the boat Now?

[mattspidermanking]

90 hp merc, but its a beast, it takes off so fast, hurts ur neck but not good at top end speeds, and i cant get it on the forks upfront cause the weight at the back

[honkeytonker]

Nice boat and hey its all trial and error ..important thing is no one was hurt.

No need to rip on the guy...give em a break

[T1O2M3J4123]

Bahaha. Motor turned into an expensive anchor.

[RU469NO]

I concure 150 merc inline 6's were a torqy motor had one for 8 years no issue but allways changed w/p impeller every season

[FastBoatsCanada]

Mercury's inline 6 motor was one of there Greatest outboards EVERY built. Nothing wrong with the water pumps as long as there change every year

[jason1786]

song??

[FallenFear223]

Never own a an in line 6 cyl merc. I had one on my boat and it lasted all of 45 seconds. Too much trouble with water pumps on these and that create big problem$

[rcminit109]

too much weight in the back. i am gonna build a nice 10' one o.O

[lilcrazed4]

[Corrybasler]

wow you fail, its not even that fast and it fell apart

[roygump]

annoying music for an annoying video of an annoying boat that no doubt annoys many people try to enjoy a day on the water without the noise and worry of getting killed by this thing of yours.
