When I was a teenager some 45 years ago, My stepdad bought a 14 foot Gregor boat that was Rated for 15 hp. We then proceeded to install in Evenrude 35. The boat was just insane, at wide-open throttle, it would stand on the prop For 500 feet before it would come in to plane. We learned not to do this heading to wind because it would easily blow over like a dragster. We finally got it to behave somewhat by putting several hundred pounds at anchor chain in the Bow. The final touch was repainting the engine cover, to indicate 7 hp so we could go on Lake Jennings. Thanks for the trip Down Memory Ln., Luke. Is that sweatshirt going to be available on your website?
@franksprecisionguesswork501 I wasn't saying I didn't believe you I guess the point I was trying to make is most of the fish Commissioners game wardens whatever in my areas could tell the difference between a 9.9 and a 7 hp just eyeballing it . Take care and be safe.
If you ain't splittin' your boat in half, you ain't from the Dena and you ain't no crabber. Love the video. You should definitely make more like this. The working videos are good but the videos like this are more entertaining for sure.
Please keep that motor on its great and suits the boat perfectly. I want a diesel outboard for my 3.5 metre tinny. Please keep it on I beg you it’s perfect and it sounds amazing.
A Yanmar Diesel is an amazing find. I've got two big inboards on my boat that are over 20 years old each. Basic maintenance will keep an older Yanmar going forever.
I want a diesel outboard so bad but just a tip may wanna get a new prop for it looks like that one was for mount around heavy loads n whatnot as it’s very low pitched
Luke That was pretty funny. I think you better find a new outboard camera person, your going to need Lindsey up front for counter weight and guidance. The Great Lakes freighters all have a steering reference pole off of the bow. You might need something aft so that you can steer where you are going based upon where you have been, cause you ain't seeing over that bow without a co-pilot! 👋🤠
If you don’t have a diesel outboard on your 16ft skiff, then you ain’t no crabber
Can confirm
😂
❤
@@fvsoutherngirlHello buddy any where I can get such an engine?
Run amsoil interceptor in it
Luke, man, if the crabber gig doesn’t work out, you have a definite future as a comedian. You’re too funny! Love your style.
Thanks for watching!
The best line is, " I don't understand. It was falling apart now it won't come apart. " I have so been there.
Every time

Haha! That’s awesome! Yeah I’ve swapped some hp stickers myself 😅 sweatshirts coming this summer!
I love your story but as far as painting seven horses on it what fish commissioner or game warden would be that stupid enough to believe that
@@n40tom Lake, Jennings, Lakeside, California, but we did most of our boating at Martinez Lake north of Yuma, Arizona on the Colorado river.

As a fellow diesel owner. I've only embraced my identity the most now that I don't own any trucks. I drive a Mk4 Golf TDI and I'm obnoxious about it!
this was absolutely hilarious. i was laughing the whole time. thanks for posting.
Thanks for watching!
5:44 “🔥” “It rolls coal”
💪👇👍

Thanks for watching!
Those sun glasses missed me up with the stickers still on them.... every time you look at the camera I thank you looking at someone behind me👍👍👍
English.
This is awesome, had no idea they made diesel outboards.. well time to hit marketplace 😄
This was the BEST. Funny as hell, im showing grandma this video on Christmas after opening presents
😂😂 thanks for watching grandma!
"You know when you see a grinder come out that things are going well." LOL!!
THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO SO FAR TODAY
If you ain't splittin' your boat in half, you ain't from the Dena and you ain't no crabber. Love the video. You should definitely make more like this. The working videos are good but the videos like this are more entertaining for sure.
Your finest video offering of all time!
Thanks!
Cooler full of beer in the front will hold the nose down
Agreed!
Temporarily
Thanks for the show Luke 🍻 🇦🇺
That motor is definitely a beast. Got that little jon boat smoking. Lol
Please keep that motor on its great and suits the boat perfectly. I want a diesel outboard for my 3.5 metre tinny. Please keep it on I beg you it’s perfect and it sounds amazing.
Maybe put the old motor in the front,you know for trolling!!!😂
Can't beat an old diesel engine. All I drive is idi diesel trucks 6.9 and 7.3 idi
Well done, great time. Thank you for sharing, make that money
“Filling a void, kind of like this boat is doing for me” 😂
So glad for the winter speed limit back Ayer’
Wow you get into trouble when you’re not crabbing!!!
Merry Christmas
True!
That boat rips that is so awesome I really enjoy your Channel thanks for taking me along I learned so much take care God bless Merry Christmas
This kid is awesome. Great sense of humor.
Most of my projects end up this way. Love diesels . 300 lbs. !! I got 425k carefree miles on my VW. From Barnegate Light area.
Best video i've in a while. keep it up man!!
bring that rig down to solomons
Great video Luke, If anybody gives you trouble over this video tell them about what idle hands can do to you. Keep on keeping on😅😅
"It looks like its fallin' apart, now i cant get it apart!" Thanks for the morning laugh
That was some good entertainment 2:25 my favorite part it really got me
That was hilariously awesome
I laughed non-stop in this video. Thank you sir and Merry Christmas to all!
Love the vid. If you don’t make it crabbing you might get a residence as a stand up comic in Las Vegas 😂😂
Hell yea like that 1956 2 duce an a 1/4....that's a Cadillac 2 1/2 valve -16hp double hull Exon valdes....👍👍👍
great video.
Luke, just spray the whole bottom of that skiff with that black rubber stuff. That’ll do ya. Better than Lindsay’s boot.
7:52 that's freaking awesome! I needed that image in my head! Lol!
Dude you crack me up, laughed so hard at your smooth delivery of jokes🤣😅
This might be one of your best vids. 😂
Stainless and aluminum are a match made in heaven.
My new all time favorite!
Thanks for watching!!
6:24 - I shot coffee out my nose. This is great fun. Thanks for what you do.
Cutest couple on earth🎉❤
Now this is awesome! I never knew they built a diesel outboard!
I didn't either til I seen it here. I'm certainly going to be trying to hunt one down. I like weird small diesels.
That motor is so cool!
Rip this Joker right in half! 🤣 Merry Christmas to you and your family. BTW that transom repair was pretty solid.
Now you need to collab with whistlindiesel 😂
I love how this video was edited you are hilarious.
A Yanmar Diesel is an amazing find. I've got two big inboards on my boat that are over 20 years old each. Basic maintenance will keep an older Yanmar going forever.
This was great 👍
Dude said what is my hand doing hahaha dude diesel baby y’all think he’s ready for zip ties and bias plies 😂😂😂
That is a amasing motor looking forward to see whats next
Luke, I'm laughing hysterically at your antics!! Merry Christmas to you and Lyndsay.
Aluminum pop rivets work good to fix pin holes.
Hilarious! Great entertainment!! Merry Christmas Luke and Lyndsey!!!
I want a diesel outboard so bad but just a tip may wanna get a new prop for it looks like that one was for mount around heavy loads n whatnot as it’s very low pitched
My dude you are hilarious! Love you videos!
This was hilarious! 😂😂😂
straight piper!? lol new sub here love the vids
Motor is long shaft! You need short shaft 20” ! Or raise transom height
This is awesome! We just started a video series on pretty much the same boat - turning it into a camper! ❤
I’m gonna need to see a top speed video of this 😂
Disebheaver koew kees ful lobge rabge bukt I kbg just Ling rabge Jess full not speed recorde
Only thing missing is a 5” stack lol
I could watch your shenanigans all day.
nice thing about diesel is its reliable. all you need is fuel and air and itll run
Disel sates flash fak years not use fas onky 6 month
Thanks!
Nicely done Luke. Love the summary video! When were you out on the water to do this one?
Personally I think that boat is great and that motor is perfect for it
I think that little diesel engine could push a little barge around. Maybe a wheelie or two.
That was great 🎉
Honestly that idea for the glove seal on your fuel tank is genius! I'm certainly going to be borrowing that!
Should get a longer controller pole. sit further forward
I like that diesel boat video you have awesome commentary borderline comical
Leave it on, it’s cool as hell.
Buddy is over compensating for something? 😅 Love your videos.
Love your videos keep up the work!
What a terrible idea. I love it!!
Need more content on this ride! Put a jack plate/tilt trim on it and dial it in!!!!
That was the first thing I thought of when you introduced different metals you got to watch for electrolysis . The weaker metal is always a sacrifice
I have a 2011 Mercury 25 tiller short shaft, 4 stroke 3 banger, wet weight is almost 300lbs. The weight for 27hp isn’t that bad in my opinion.
This is the time to put a helm station forward on the jon boat...
and an anti cavitation plate/fin on the outboard?
Lmao “It’s falling apart but won’t come apart!”
Thanks for making me laugh today buddy. Great video
Man, watching your videos makes me really miss Maryland. They REALLY don’t know how to cook crabs here in Florida.
Luke

I love you're sense of humour 😂
My dads 1660 flat bottom has a 55 gas burner on it. it's sketchy wide open, lol
Pretty accurate. So many diesel guys make it their whole personality
Whistlin diesel vibes and I’m here for it
I like this guy his projects go like mine. Need get worried!! Do it yourself!!!👊🏻
“It looks like it’s falling apart, now I can’t get it apart” story of my life working on commerical boats
Looking good. You got to 💕 diesel
This went better for you than the premise would suggest it should have.
