Hi mate, I’m not sure but think it does come to suit long shaft transom. I would stick to standard outboards though until it proves itself. Cheers 🍻 Aussie Boat Guy 😎
Interesting concept! a bitt worried though about possible water ingression....but if the duct can be routed high enough, maybe OK. Servicing in water is guess about zero, absolute nothing that can be done?
They say it only needs to be serviced every 500 hours or 5 years however; they only warranty it for 3 years! What does that tell you. Another e-tech situation brewing! Run!!!😢
That thing is a disaster right from the drawing board. The tests have shown that the holeshot with this engine compared to a normal outboard...the Evinrude 150 G2 (some powerhead as the Rotax) over 10 times longer, 36 seconds to get on plane. Speed was lower, maintenance was more difficult. There is a big fall out at BRP over this disaster. If you go to Team Marine Service channel you can see for yourself what a clust F*** outboard is and how BRP treats their employees!
Thanks for you comments mate. The added weight further aft of the transom (planing surface) would definitely make it harder to get up onto the plane. I was a bit shocked to see that design. Cheers 🍻 Aussie Boat Guy 😎
@@TeamMarineService the outcome of this Rotax is still to be determined. It seems to make sense on the Pontoons. But just so you know the Evinrude G2 is a much better outboard than the internet makes it out to be. There is allot of haters and negative coment leavers spreading hate on what really is a fantastic 2 stroke engine. I’m on my 8th year owning a 225 H.O. And it’s a rocket! 🚀
@@wessle3233how were the Evinrude G2s for you guys? I have really enjoyed mine for the past 8 years (225. H.O.) people really like them in my area. I really don’t understand the hate. I think it’s mostly haters spreading rumours.
@@25hpboatracerman Another point how do you inspect/work on it while afloat Edit: just seen another video that shows it tilted right up, the whole engine clears the water. So still accessable
@@Phantom-mk4kp But not accessible really as the cowl is a sealed unit and apparently needs to only be opened by a special specific mechanic 🤷♂️ Cheers 🍻
what the life expectancy for that engine, to pull 150 HP from 1.9 litre, the engine should be overstressed and of course its life is reduced, for example, the expected life of a jet ski is about 500 hours when the life of an I/O drive based on an automotive engine can easily reach 2000 hours if treated reasonably. good video
Hi mate, Does look that way, I’m not 100% sure it’s a jet ski motor, I could not find much out about it at the show. I just don’t know about the actual motor being submerged 🤷♂️ Cheers 🍻 Aussie Boat Guy 😎
😂😂 Yeah, well I was very surprised to see it at the boat show, I could think of a fair few things that I would have made different. Cheers 🍻 Aussie boat Guy 😎
Cool , I was thinking of a surface drive like that but with the prop straight off the crank but just above the planing surface
Hi mate,
Now that’s a way better idea, that I would buy 👌👌
Cheers 🍻
Thanks for the clip. Would it fit on a standard 5.5m Quintrex without extensive mofification to the ass end of the boat?

good job mate very interesting out bored some think different
Hi mate,
Very different indeed, don’t know if it’s going to succeed.

That’s funny 😂
Can’t wait to see how they last, seems weird to have an outboard underwater.
cheers 🍻

Looks like a solution to a problem no one knew existed 😂
😂😂
I do like new things but we will see if this one is a winner.

You know my thoughts 😂
Yep, I do 😂😂
under board Evinrude force

As a boat mechanic i thought the new yàmaha and mercurys were a pain to work on Evinrude is in its own league with this one
😂😂
Hi mate,
You said it very well, let’s just say, it’s an interesting design 😁
Cheers and all the best,

ya i work at a BRP dealership and i hope nobody buys this shit

Looks too vulnerable to me
What happens when seals fail. Would never go to sea with it

Hi mate,
I also have a lot of questions about that motor and share your thoughts too.
Cheers 🍻
Appreciate your comments

@@25hpboatracerman It's 2 stroke so not much different to a 2 litre V6 mercury for power output, in fact a bit less
@@Phantom-mk4kpi don't think that's a two stroke
@@ptsdgopedsnbikes8156it's a 2 stroke
From the people that bought you ETEC.....an outboard which lives underwater. What could go wrong. Seriously it looks wrong.
Hi mate,
Yep, well I can think of a lot that can go wrong 😂
cheers 🍻

looks like a rich mans toy thats not really intended move past the first owner, bit concerned about the lifespan of a jet ski motor,

What a complete pile of absolute junk . Only an engineer would submerge the entire engine under water what could possibly go wrong
