Reckon it would be a whole lot easier and cheaper to just buy or hire a camper when you go from one continent to another.
Meaning what ? A well inside a boat an outboard engine fits into ? You need to give some detail
If it lays over a little at times, it is probably cross winds causing the boat to lay over into the breeze, which is a common enough thing. If the...
Hello, the longitudinal distance between the CLR and COG is what creates the lever arm that wants to steer the boat off course. Think of a...
Lucks awfully like oxidised zinc
So if introducing bubbles of air has been a disappointment, what about pressurized air cavities ? Any joy there ?
OK, I will leave you with it, I just think it is a waste of time and effort, you will get nothing worth the trouble out of it.
The high thrust props I have seen on those engines have a hub that is wider than the lower unit "bullet", so as to be able to deflect exhaust...
In any case, the trailing edge of the prop blades have at least a little cupping, you add-on is probably going to add very little thrust, but will...
I'd be amazed if this made any worthwhile difference, in this particular application
This might do the job, says it fits T50: Yamaha 4 Blade Aluminum Propeller 70-80-85-90-100-115-140hp Prop (ozpropellers.com.au)
That prop isn't the high thrust prop for that engine, is it ? Why not just use their specified high-thrust props ?
More blade area if required, is best accomplished with more blades, the penalty with any increase in blade area is added frictional drag
I saw an old drive once that was a drive leg with the power coming in through a flexible drive, like a hose that attached to it.
I don't think you will gain anything. Is that the prop that came with the engine ?
What is the rationale behind this, that it offers some utility that a small outboard motor does not ?
Can't see much there, he did post under the username Fax Paws
I wonder what happened to that youtube fella that had the little one with the 90hp 6cyl Mercury I posted. I might see if I can find any updates on...
:) haha, the jury is still out on that one, but I have noticed that boating people tend to be pretty conservative on the whole, and wacky ideas...
Depends on what the fit-out includes, it can still be a substantial part of the cost, but if it is of doubtful utility and even more doubtful...
