I’ve been driving bass boats for 10 years but still watch these for some reason
@Raymond Mustafa yeah you dumb moron, just keep on testing! 🤣🤣
Perfect Video thank you! I was looking trying to find out how to takeoff now I know it needs to be all the way down then tilt it up once you start getting speed.
great video .... I'm new at this and you explained the concept better than any other of the videos .. thank-you!!! (do you have any other videos)???
good info
Excellent video and instruction so simple and best one for anyone to understand.
THANK you very much, great video and very useful. any other such a useful video?
hi, i have a SIB, 84lbs 3m inflatable with air floor. yamaha 6hp 4stroke, 60lbs,trim pin at 1st position by transom. i just can't get it to go faster than 8mph, can't expect any planing. at full throttle the stern sinks and bow raises, total weight; 2x people+cargo+engine 390lbs do i need a bigger engine? or ride with 1 passenger only. with one passenger it would weigh, 295lb. Should i buy a 9.9hp 2 stroke or get a 9.9hp 4stroke? 4 strokes are heavy, and do you think its ok to put a 15hp 2stroke on it? the boat is rated for 10hp outboard and overall carrying weight of 1100lbs. thanks for your time.
Never seen a pro 250 go to slow on TH-cam 😂
im on 3rd Bass boat in 12 yrs. This is my 2nd Ranger. It won Trim past 1/4 on plane. both my other Bass boats would trim to 1/2 with no problem allowing for much more speed and fuel economy. What can be done to correct this?
probably need a different prob.
Try a hydrofoil
I'm brand new.. just bought me a bass boat and need help trimming and coming to a complete stop. Every time I stop I still get a little bit of water on my carpet..
Jadiel 254 not sure what you're asking ?
Mike Davitt trimming and how to stop.. u only trim when on plane so needed help with that and how to stop. But it's ok I got it now
When you let off the throttle and the boat starts slowing down the back end of the boat starts sinkin back down in the water and your wave behind you is traveling faster than you are now. When you see the little wave get close to the back of your boat just kind of goose the throttle a bit. Just a little and let back off and it will keep the wave from coming over the back of your boat and getting your carpet wet
Jadiel 254 your slowing down to quickly and displacing a large amount of water with your hull. The water rushing back at you is the equal reaction to displacing all that water. Anticipate slowing down ahead of time and drop speed slowly
Ken Fung just give it gas at the end, slowing the rate you decelerate doesn’t help that. Your boat is still going to sink down and have a wave come at you.
Видео очень полезное,но я плохо знаю Английский язык((( Но все равно спасибо!
Never did actually show trimming the motor and how it should look when properly trimmed.
NO. Cavitate does NOT mean "sucking air into" anything, not in any way or form. This was a useful trimming routine, but please know what you're advising before doing so, and please don't attempt to talk about physics without knowing (éven) the básics... How can the viewers whom don't know you, trust anything you say after such an ignorant comment. That said, great protocol, thank you for that...
Relax dude it's just an 3 m video providing helpful info
cav·i·ta·tion (kăv′ĭ-tā′shən)
n.
1. The sudden formation and collapse of low-pressure bubbles in liquids by means of mechanical forces, such as those resulting from rotation of a marine propeller.
2. The pitting of a solid surface.
3. Medicine The formation of cavities in a body tissue or an organ, especially those formed in the lung as a result of tuberculosis.
You mean on plane not pad.
more confused
Doesn't explain trimming very well at all.
