What was it like when you had it on the water?
I have outboards but they seem loose ( too easy to flop around) when on land but in the water they are good.
All I can tell you is I’ve run a three blade aluminum 11 pitch vs a SS 11 pitch and the SS was way better. (3mph top speed and hole shot).
On a 1200lb total weight aluminum and it goes 25mph.

Part of the reason I have a side console boat is so the windshield and Bimini doesn’t trap exhaust. My tank is about 12” tall and holds 5.3l. I did a 30mile trip and I used about 1.25” of oil. A big day of...

It’s on a 1994 StarCraft walleye 180. (Super fisherman)
I worked at the spaghetti factory (wiring) all day. I got most of it done.
Trim gauge is not working. The trim gauge might not be original. there is no wire for the light and I can tell it never had a wire hooked to it. the hole is cut out different from the rest.
Gauge is out of boat and...
