You are absolutely wrong, you are just running a richer mixture. You have hurt your fuel economy, reduced power, increased the carbon build up.

“A boat is a hole in the sea you throw your money into”

It buys a project that never ends

If you look down the front opening of the carb, the orifice for air intake should be larger. look behind the choke plate. This combined with a larger jet will make the engine generate more power.

There is/was a Riva restorer in Amsterdam -- I was going to visit in 2016, but ran out of time . .

Great video. Thank you for the considerations.🎉

Location Location,location ......where are these boats located, it would help

I have a 8hp Tohatsu I been trying to find a video with all parts it’s a 2024 can you help me???

Now it's 2 .5 yrs later so that boat is probley Cheaper today with this idiot president we have.

What kind of speed did you get with the 3.5 HP.

Looks nice, 55 foot is a good size.

Great video thanks. I am looking for a used Dinghy much like you bought with a locker. Nice comparison of sizes on the wall too, for visual comparison. 👍🏼

Robert Penske owns it, and it's named "Podium".

Nos

Although reliable, Hondas are a pain in the ass to get serviced. Their certified mechanic network is no where near Mercury and Yamaha.

The cost is worse than those numbers because that money spent is no longer making money in the stock market

Bought a 2021 and Eastern was horrible to deal with on quality/warranty issues. Horrible. They use butyl tape for bedding deck hardware, set up a dangerous propane system that had to be removed, and too many other things to list. Do not buy new, get one that has been used and proven. Love my boat, have full disdain for Eastern!

Headroom?

great option please provide access to the mentioned excel sheet thanks

I am interested in your old carburetor if you still have it laying around?

I own an Antares 11 and I have some plusses and minuses to report. It is very easy to use and the joystick function makes docking a breeze. It handles very well in calm and rough seas - had it out in 6' swell and it was fine. Great speed with twin merc 300's. Great vessel for fun on Narragansett Bay environs. That said, there are some real flaws. First and most inmportantly, quality is not like the old Beneteaus. The company moved production to Poland and the quality is shaky. Leaky overhead, misaligned cabinets, A/C works great in cooler weather but completely fails to keep up with hotter temps (we're in RI which isn't exactly 'hot weather'). Even the toilet seat was dielivered in the wrong size. One design flaw is that the helm is very hot in warm weather - zero wind flow and no windows to allow wind flow. BTW - it is not exactly cheap either. Also, Beneteau completely eliminated ANY direct contact and all complaints/concerns must go through the dealer. It is impossible to complain about a bad dealer to Beneteau HQ

Not an outstanding boat for that money.

Hi! Great video! I tried to find the excel in your web page but could not find it. Can you please send it to me? Best regards Magnus

Although you sound like Ben Stein when doing your over dubs, the comparisons were awesome!!

Don't need 12 months each of dock/mooring AND winter storage, do you? And if you're going to TOW it, do you need either? And haul/launch fees for a trailered boat?

I was expecting to see a rubber raft or kayak😊

It’s what I’m looking for,unfortunately JFB has things all messed up right now I’ll wait till next year but I’m looking now

this does not boost hp. Adding more fuel will just make the mixture rich so it might have a bit more torque but it will loose peak hp. To get more hp you need to add more fuel and air.

Where can I order this fixture

No way. Projecting. Bayliner or Meridian sport trawler/cruiser with diesels smashes these boats in every category at this price point. Edit: Good effort though, good effort.

Great Channel I enjoy all the content! I think I remember your boat one night in Cuttyhunk, we had a crazy storm come through. Hope your swim platform was okay. I’ll never forget that lighting and rain.

Very nice clean engines!

I have just bought a display 8hp Parsun motor. I understand it is a Mercury/Tohatsu clone. I plan on doing this exact same conversion, using an inexpensive generic 9.8hp carb. Can you please elaborate on what was misaligned so that the choke was jammed?

Do you have any photos of the underwater light's? Curious if they are factory or if they installed new ones

The performance shown is I believe for v drives . What improvement does the stern drive make ?

Climate change , buy the pilothouse cruiser with h.v.a.c. . and solar panels up there on the roof . You'll be glad you did .

@1:08 Please refrain from introducing additional noise after muting the recording due to wind interference next time. It can be quite bothersome.

I guess you also need the exhaust port round part.

Did they make older boots built stronger and better? Like how cars are now. New ones suck!

That’s because the boating market is too high

this is 2 years old how could this help me buy boat now BS

We’re looking for a yacht used for under $100,000 live board with a sliding rear patio style window entrance. The more like a condo it is the better. Two bedroom two bathroom. Can you recommend some models in that price range?

What an absolute pig. At 8.5 knots, consumption is 3.78 litres per mile. Ridiculous.

There are no " State Rooms" on this boat . There is a forward berth, barely a cabin.

If it's got a motor, a propeller, or a VA whinah,,you're gonna have problems with it.

italy limit boat , stupid frances

This video is so bad, it is almost comical. 😂

1:32. That didn’t age well.

Thanks for this. It's the first time that I've seen the motor being held instead of mounted to a frame while it was run. I think you have just saved me a lot of time and money.
