Just a quick video of my steering dampener. It’s not the prettiest setup buck it works great
11x18p 4 blade (after I put a cut on it)

Just a close up of what the ronhill 4 blade looks like up close . I’m going to have a crack at tuning it some more and see if I can get a bit more speed out of it.
10x18 ronhill quick test
มุมมอง 17714 วันที่ผ่านมา
I put a cut on my 10x18p ronhill 4 blade. It’s picked up a fair bit more excellaration. The topend was roughly the same, but I reckon it might go a bit quicker with some more engine height as it wasn’t slipping at all.
11.25x20p over hub cleaver
มุมมอง 3.3K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
I took this video last summer when I was testing out some props. It’s an 11x20p cleaver It ran great and had plenty of excellaration for an over hub . I didn’t have time to dial in properly. I tested one a couple weeks back that had been pitched up to 21 and had a little bit of cup added. It ran awesome and did 96kph easy enough. There a excellent little prop for the price of them
Breaking in the 50
มุมมอง 2143 หลายเดือนก่อน
I’ve put a couple hours on the 50 I rebuilt and gave it a couple quick squirts down the Logan this morning. I had the motor set low with the ronhill 18p 4 blade on. It’s got a lot of excellaration compared to 60 , but i reckon the gear ratio has a bit to do with it. Next time out I’ll try the 12x22 on it . It revs the forge 18p and the ronhill out to quick and I don’t want to rev it to hard jus...
Testing out the wuhan 21p
มุมมอง 2523 หลายเดือนก่อน
I gave a mates a 11x21p cleaver a quick blast. It went excellent. I reckon it might give a 100kph a nudge set up right . I had the motor set pretty low to run my forge v2 .

Was out with a mate this morning and he took a video of us cruising along. This tinny rides along nice . I think was cruising along at 80kph and got up it towards the end Thanks again to Damien for taking the video
New project
มุมมอง 1703 หลายเดือนก่อน
I’m going to try a merc 50hp on the tinny to see how it handles with 10/12kg less hanging on the transom. I’m currently in the process of rebuilding it. The previous owner ran it lean and nipped up a couple of pistons.
Tried adding an inch of setback
มุมมอง 6954 หลายเดือนก่อน
I tried adding an extra inch of setback. This was before I fitted the transom mount water pickup. It averaged around 1.5/2kph better topend, but it porpoised at any speed under 50kph so I ended up changing it back to 4 inches because it’s a much better boat to drive set at 4 inches compared to 5.
12x22p blows out couldn’t handle the extra height
มุมมอง 1884 หลายเดือนก่อน
Was testing out the transom mount pick up . I had the motor maxed on the jack plate running 2 inches higher than I can run it with the standard gearbox pick ups. The prop blew out at about 75kph when I trimmed out. I’m going to play around with weight distribution and put some more weight towards the stern. Hopefully I won’t have to trim out to far to pick the bow up.

What size boat and motor?
Does it come with the valve from Hydrive ?
Yeah it came complete, I didn’t buy it from hydrive. I bought it off a mate.
@@merc625 cheers, need one as well.
It's damper, not dampener.
It’s actually Dampener. Damper is a noun.
@@bobbuilder5362 Dampener is also a noun. So what?
Hey mate I need a chat with you
Hi mate my email is performancetinnies@gmail.com
I forgot to mention that the 60 revs around 6200 with 1.64 gears to get 94kph , so the 50 must of been reving around 6900 to get 94 kph with the 1.83 gears
Jake we are going for a run tomorrow morning if you are keen
Hi Mate, can you show how you set up the steering dampener ? , did you buy it complete or you make it up yourself? Im running a 2008 4 stroke merc. just feel I need more dampening at high speeds ! Nick
Hi mate it’s the same one they use on tcats When I get I’ll post a quick video of it
Hey mate , Liam here from NZ , I love my tinnys and am always looking to get a bit more performance out of them. Loving the videos , I've been playing round trying to get my motor higher to get up shallow creaks and river bars , cupping my prop might be just the thing , I've already got a perma trim , that helped a lot.
All the American guys just chuck on an $900 dollar prop, I can't afford running that and hitting the bottom. Just mod up a cheap alloy one , how good
Put a massive cup on my old 10 pitch stainless prop this afternoon. It's absolutely insane how well it works !!! Thank you so much for making this video , it's changed the game for me. I was gonna have to chop and lower my transom to run my motor . Now it runs mint where it is
Bought a mod-v tracker sportsman tiller 1654 with a merc 40 EFI '2,33/1', it's heavy for its size at 330kg bare, but I will add a manual jackplate. 4 inch setback. Your videos made me want to install it 1 inch above hull bottom. Want to try cavitation plate above water on plane. Is a "SE Sport 300" hydrofoil still useful if above water on plane? Seller said 26knots, but I wanna reach 30knots and 6200rpm with a little fiddling ; ) The local mercury racing dealer can re-flash ECU to 65hp and 400 dollars US.
I recently bought an american type jon boat, '1654 sportsman tiller', comes with 40hp mercury, I fish, but of course I like to get some knots too. What would you say is a good 'intermediate' installing height? 25,5mm cav plate above hull bottom? I have no plans for jack plate, so I will go for mounting holes, (inch?) up or down. Cheers from Sweden. I learned alot from your videos, I was still installing cav plate below water on plane.
What size motor?
Hi mate it’s a 2stroke mercury 60
Hey, mate, what size is your boat? My propeller is the same as yours, 2 stroke, 50 hptohatsu
It’s a 4.25 edgetracker slim line It measures around 3,9/4 m
Are you still running the Permatrim ? looks like it doesn't effect your top speed once you have trimmed out, especially with high engine height.
Next time let your audience look at something other that your neck beard.
Why does your head look like a dial? Is this a new tik tok trend?
😂
How long is that hull your running????
The sticker says 4.25 but it measures 3.9/4 m
Quick question... i got a 14x30 cleaver and it has a lot of prop slip(around 38%)... should i get cup added to get that prop to grip more?
Yessir, I used the ball hitch method starting at 1/2" out from hub and 1/2" down from blade tip. Using heat helps alot. Be very mindful of how much you add. Little bit at a time is the ticket. That's just my two cents.
Cupping will help mate , but I’d probably send it to a prop shop . The blades are usually thicker on a cleaver where the cupping is and a bit trickier to cup. What is your setup mate? You might have to up the diameter a bit if it’s slipping a lot
That thing sounds mean!!!
Yeah it’s pretty loud , I haven’t drilled the exhaust on it either
@@merc625 please post a video when you do!!!
Runs great! The 96 Tohatsu M50D im running has been amazing! Ive always been a merc 2 stroke fan, but now i run 2 stroke Tohatsus! Have you ran any M50D outboards?
Hi mate, I haven’t personally. But a mate of mine builds them and runs them on Thundercats. I think damo has run 113kph 2 up with a tuned 11.25x20p
@@merc625 Yessir! I have TSR heads and all kinds of goodies on mine! She's fast!
Awesome! I balanced out my Ron Hill Semi Cleaver and thinned the blades a little. Performance is 8 out 10 now. Way less vibration on my tiller and seems easier to steer as well
Nice mate! Yeah ronhill props can be a bit hit and miss. But some of them run great with a bit of tuning. Ive had a couple of great ones over the years.
My mate sells these there a 11x20p over hub cleaver.
Nice video that boat rips!
Yeah I can’t wait to try a bigger prop on it and see if it’s quicker than the 60
Can you put a long tiller on a 2005 50 hp 4 strokeif so we're do you buy them and who could do the work thanks mate 😊😅😊
I’d just look on marketplace mate. There to expensive to buy new You could fit it yourself easy enough.
Hi mate, you have to grind a little bit off the bottom of the tiller bracket so it doesn’t fowl on the tilt tube. The bolts line up
Thanks champ 👍 And the bracket bolts directly on too? Cheers
propeller half in water and half in Air
Might be time to look at weight reduction and let that thing fly!
I might have to lay off the chocolates and ice cream 😂
Nice 👍
Forge v2 ??? 11x18p over hub ?????
Yeah mate it’s a over hub semi cleaver similar to a Yamaha drad
@@merc625 Thanks again, you save others so much time in getting the most out of their tiny. Legend !!
I'd love a tinny my wife and I could putt around in exploring creeks and I could barefoot behind. Whats the combo ? This is the kit.....
Hi mate it’s a 4.25 stessl edge tracker slimline The motor is a 05 mercury 60hp 2 stroke
@@merc625 Thanks for the info bro, much appreciated.
@@merc625 Thanks for info, love your work and sharing of time for a great fast build tiny.
Nice, sitting perfect
Good job mate , that's running clean , 👍
Yewwww , ready for the next day out !
Is there any way to make it quiet down when you don’t want it loud? Like putting that aluminum ducting tape over the holes for those quiet mornings and then rip it off when the sun comes up?
I reckon you could make a plate to bolt in there to block it off
Once I jack it up the vibration goes away but the torque remains. Also I'm running a hydrotrim type setup.
It's my first semi cleaver prop and it came from Ron Hill, very fast prop but it vibrates pretty bad and has crazy tiller torque.
Yeah some of Ron’s props are pretty rough. You can send it to a prop guy to be balanced or give it a go yourself Tiller torque is just the nature of the beast, once you raise your motor and start trimming tiller torque will increase.
Before I trim my cav plate out the water the tiller torque and vibration is ridiculous. I'm running a 96 Tohatsu M50D, it's Mildy built and I've got to take the torque some how. This semi cleaver is killing my arm. My round ear fishing prop isn't near as bad.
Is that simons cat?
Nah Damien’s
Fuel efficient....and smooooth ride.
Looks fun and lots of thrills with a tiller.
Yeah if I had the dollars I would build a hotty. I didn’t want to spend much money on this 50 . Cost me $1038 for a wsm rebuild kit and $40 for a hone
Need to swap in some 1260sa sleeves from advance sleeve. Then port the block to match the exhaust port in the sleeve. You’ll have a stout motor.
I got 32 kmh in my 14’ aluminum boat and was scared to death!
The more you drive it mate , you will start to get a feel for it . Then you’ll probably want to go faster 😂
Самый лучший мотор в этом классе
You Australians are crazy 👍
12x22p Chinese copy of a merc
Where did you buy that from
EBay
What prop is that my friend?
The New 40hp eo (bought ot yesterday) has a different larger cdi and no seperate rev limiter. I suspect it is integrated in the cdi or possibly there isnt.. Theres a black/White loop connected to the back of the cdi i suspect this is to interrupt the circuit. I Will check it and comment later with the results
Nice What brand and model 40 is it mate
@@merc625 Mercury Eo 40hp 3cyl. (Japan) year 2023.
I Havent tested unplugging the jumper yet because i was able to get to 6000 revs with no load. So i suspect there isn't one , or if there is i think 6000+ is a good place to have one. There are however valve stops behind the reeds and small venturis for the size of the motor which seem to be restricting the power. And also the butterflies did not open all the way from the factory by slightly bending the stop tab on the #1 carb so they opened all the way i got 200 rpm more at full throttle with 3 passengers. Next step will be to slightly increase compression to make up for altitude and check that the timing is correct i heard some found the ign timing placed rather conservatively at WOT from the factory.
Looked awesome- no speed shown!😢
Hi mate it was prolly doing around 90kph give or take
Loving the content mate keep em coming cheers from Cairns Fnq
