After it starts running good, can you bring it back down to a troll and accelerate back on plane? Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

You can if you want, but go price out a welder with TIG functions or a mig welder that can use an aluminum spool gun option. Chances are your Traeger BBQ is cheaper. Most builds that aren't welded are riveted joints Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

You will need to weld aluminum which a totally different animal than steel welding.. and alot more expensive for a machine. Either bring it to someone to do it for you, or rivet the framing together.. check out Tiny boat Nation on YouTube. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

Who trolls at 2-3mph for walleyes? Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

^^^^^ 3/8 stubby impact and 3/8 rachet for me Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

I've done up to 30mph with the ATV tires.. I have a fishing destination that is only accessible by ATV. So I drive with my truck to the unloading point. Once I unload the atv I switch the tires on the trailer, then hook the trailer to the atv. One could do the same scenario if going all the...

Keep in mind the OP hasn't chimed in to say how much clearance is needed. The average pickup only has about 10" at the rear diff, so the trailer doesn't need more than that.. my ATV tires give me 12" at the axle. I've never snagged the axle on any trail the trailer can fit down. Sent from my...

Yeah I can't blame you.. I just checked the prices and some of those parts are expensive!! I would do the same as we have a good bearing and seal distributor in my city. You might have to bring the shafts in to the bearing shop so they can get an accurate measurement of the bearing I.D. Sent...

I have a similar boat with the same TM.. my fastest speed on the TM is equal to my slowest speed on the outboard (3.5 KM/h). I usually run it at 2.5km/h ( speed 5 or 6) and it lasts all day on 1 group 24 battery Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

Go to marineengine.com and pull up the parts list for your motor, compare it to a 60hp.. chances are it will be the same scenario as the 2008. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

Yes, less holes the better.. and it's only a 20hp, so 2 bolts is plenty. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

No worries.. my 30hp mercury ( tohatsu) is mounted by the dealer with a gap, And only 2 through bolts. As long as there is still room to clamp on the screw clamps you'll be ok. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

Check to make sure that the motor can pivot a full 90° from storage to run positions. As you can see the little ramp that the foot has to climb over before pivoting and dropping in the water- maybe the motor can't pivot enough and it's binding up. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

Good to know! 1.5mph out of a prop change on a 5hp is impressive. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

I wouldn't bother wasting my money.. a conventional or agm will do the job just fine. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

Yeah you'll probably only get 1mph. The rule of thumb is double the horsepower gets you half the speed. For instance: if I have a 20hp that does 20mph, a 40hp gets me to 30mph Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

Two totally different animals. It all depends what you are going to use the boat for. A Jon boat is more stable with the flat bottom, but a vee hull is better in rough conditions. In my area Jon boats are very hard to come by. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

You might have a Yamaha connector, they look very similar. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

All they will do is have some high school kid pull the cotter pin and adjust the nut. It may be too tight, or too loose. You can do a better job yourself. Sent from my SM-A526W using Tapatalk

Ahh ok, good to know. I'm going to run this motor as is without the thermostat. If I gives me trouble trolling I'll put in a new one next winter. This motor is going to my hunt camp so it only runs 5-6 weekends a year, a few in the summer, and a few in the fall. The main objective is that...
