    Hi Poul. Nice video as always😂.
    It looks like there is a lot of water in the engine oil. Be sure to check the oil in the near future.
    Happy sailing 😊

      Yes, you can be sure that I will do that. I actually think it’s a lot of unburned fuel.

    Trade the 90 for a 40, the boat will be much safer!! Also mount a bracket for a 2.5hp emergency engine, also good for line fishing - a worthwhile mod!!

      yes, that's correct, you can check it if you heat some ml in a glass tube carefully. If you do hear it a knock (or small explosion ;-) ), you have water in it.

    Try a 3 blade prop at 14 degrees also maybe fit a pair of trim tabs to the back of the boat

    just thinking you must be careful with the power and the safety of the construction of the bow/boat

      I think a newer 90hp 2 stroke is the Same weight as one and a half 65hp outboards when the sheltie was made in the early 80s just make sure transom is solid and stick a thin stainless plate where engine is fastened for the torque difference..Simples i wouldn't worry about it😊

      @@austenwest1011 in case you didn't understood me..MAX HP FOR A 535 includes a sheltie is 65 for the normal 535 and 70 for a sheltie by manufacturer specs if you go over those specs in either weight or HP your insurance will be null and void if you ever have a little bang, doesn't matter if you bought it like that or not, ignorance is no excuse! but heyyou do you.

      ​@SailingAnja that's not the question any way sailor boy the question was the outboard size what was on the sheltie and the 535 offshore can be insured with a 75hp so stop being a loud keyboard warrior and stick to your sails and 4 hp back up on your leasure 17 pal 👍
