You could get both tiller throttles to work together with a small bike sprocket and chain. Just put it ideally on engine side of throttle. Might need a small trim to handle.
Dude, I love that outboard place on 50. It is like a museum inside of there with all of the restored outboards. I was hoping that the guys grandmother would be in the video. She is so knowledgeable and she does a lot of the restoration since her husband passed. I love that place!
I drive past it everyday on my way to work but have never stopped by. I saw your comment before I got to that part of the video but I instantly knew what you were talking about when you said "that outboard place on 50" lol. When I was a kid I'd always break my neck looking at all the cool boats when we drove by.
I had a friend who ran out of premix oil. He ran into the house and came back with a bottle. Wound up using his mom’s cooking oil for the YZ. I don’t think I was ever so ready to get back home that day. The oil he grabbed was the one that his mom used for FRYING CHICKEN!!! The smell of chicken frying from his bike was hilarious. Especially when everyone kept saying is everyone cooking chicken today at every stop. I was starving!!!
the guy with the outboard shop needs to start a channel , i would subscribe immidiately , as much as i love the rough n ready style of what you do , there's something theraputic about taking an old boat or outboard & making it look new again that i love

I stayed at The Ramada Inn at Kill Devil Hills in NC last weekend. The two couples who stayed beside me were from your area. They all knew who you were and liked your channel. I enjoyed their company and glad to have met them.
I refurbished a 1970 aluminum jon boat 15 years ago,no leaks,a lot of work but i used a torch on every rivet and put a west system/epoxy on every one,then sprayed it with truckbed coating.
Bro, I just spit redbulll all over the place at “mine shuts itself off”. Had motors like that before. Had a 9.9 with no neutral one time. Get your s**t ready and give her a rip 😂 You’re one of the funniest guys on TH-cam. Glad to see you having fun goofing off for a change!
I always love a shop where you can borrow whatever parts you need because you know if they need it bad for something, they’ll just come take it back off your boat.
When I saw this I thought. What’s this wild man up to now? Didn’t disappoint!!! To get technical isn’t one prop turn one way and other turn opposite on duel outboards. Hey you’re right that outboard guy should start a TH-cam channel. I’d watch for sure👍
i can attest... if you get the moisture balance right, the underside of a bush out in the yard is a fantastic place to keep an engine. the moisture and dirt seems to keep the rubber from drying out as quickly. its the same reason i never drain fuel out of my engines. you'll never get all the fuel. The tiny amount that remains will harden up, clog everything and your rubber components will dry out and crack.
Luke, I think you could get a third 25 on the transom! But you may need a bit of reinforcing to keep the transom attached.. reminds me of the time we put an Evenrude 35 on a 14 ft Gregor boat that was rated for 15 hp!. Of course you’ll have to rig up some flexi cables so it works with one throttle. By the way the wire hose clamp works better if you put two loops around the hose. And better yet if you know someone who works stringing up telephone and cable tv cables. Their lashing wire is stainless! No rust!
They can take my reliable two strokes from my cold dead hands. Imagine buying a four stroke, twice the weight for half the power and twice the maintenence. My 40 year old Gamefisher meanwhile I just need to replace the plugs every once in a while and do the gear oil, with the right mix it will run forever. (Speaking of did you drain and replace the gear oil, it's nuts how many people forget)
@@DustinKeating-yk3vq seriously, I was looking earlier this year, even used ones are ridiculous. I don't get it, they're such simple motors just hooked up to a vertical drive shaft and they pull water cooling from the water they're in.
You know they literally spray oil into the environment? Have you ran one in a trash can? Would you drink that water? Water your garden with that water?
@@peirsd yup don't care. It runs great and I run it rich so it spits more oil, but will last longer. My little Gamefisher doesn't hurt anything compared to the entire continent of India, China, any city in the US like Detroit, etc.
I'm working on a 40 year old gamefisher 15 right now. It's been sitting for 25 years, and I tightened a few bolts and cleaned the spark plugs, and it fired right up
Luke, this was a great video. Never a dull moment. i laughed through the whole think. thanks for thinking to do that project. it was a hoot. thanks for sharing. get the leak fixed.....lol
Came here for this comment. That three way wont work one engine will starve the other till it can suck air right on through unless theres check valves on both lines
So I saw a cool video we’re a person cooked there crab in sprite….😮 an it got me to thanking maybe you could do a a video trying out different methods of cooking crab. Love the videos, keep it up man
I guess my holding onto my grandfather's '62 Johnson 18 Hp was a good thing afterall. And sadly none of the boatyards up in RI can service that motor either. 😮😮😮😢
My 14 starcraft with one Johnson 25, my removable floors between rear and mid bench, and mid and front and deck in front with just me got 26mph. It's electric start so also a battery. When I first put it together bare boat just fuel tank and battery in back with me was scary, coming back into a head wind thought it would come over on me. Started adding weight forward with deck and then floors and has been a great rig. Like your attitude, keep the experiments coming, great entertainment!
I keep a bar of surfboard wax in the Jon boat and chunk some on any leaking rivets. Works great for the day but will melt out in the sun if the boat is dry
Luke I’m definitely glad that you finally did a dual motor setup on a boat for sure!!! I have always wanted to do the same thing but I definitely have not been able to find a couple of the same boat motors to try it let alone even figure out the issue with my 35HP Johnson that I have on my 18’ flat bottom boat!!! Awesome video buddy for sure!!!
Might I suggest blind rivets. really had to punch compared to a regular pop rivet, but a 5.5mm drill, a bag of 5.2mm blindrivets and your favoured goop, +5 exp every rivet. works very well.
Back in 2002, I put a new Merc 25 (two stroke) on my 12foot custom glass marsh boat. After several duck hunts with it, I got a GPS to test the top speed. It was still (slowly) accelerating at a shown 34 mph but scared me when it started chine-walking and I shut it down. ( I had put a Merc SS prop on it with more-than-stock pitch.) I never went for top end again with that motor.
I could be wrong but if you have twice the power and similar top speed I would think you can gain speed with more prop. It definitely has no problem getting on plane 😂
Man ive always wanted to stop by that place on 50. Thats outboard engine heaven!!!!! Back 20yrs ago I would see a guy with a 16ft chawk with twin 25 Johnsons tillers.
You probably need to increase the pitch on those props. If the engine can hit max RPM with just one engine, you're probably hitting the rev limiters when running 2. An increase of 2" in pitch would probably do it.

You can in fact use SAE 30 non detergent motor oil in place of 2 stroke oil. It is what was used before 2 stroke oil was a thing.

Your project always -hilariously-work😮❤
Your content is so real. It’s awesome to see you just having a good time with friends.
Wow, that salvage place is old o/b heaven 😍 😮
Flip it over and cover the bottom with Flex-seal tape! Great episode. Nice break from the crabbing videos!
What a long 2 weeks! Happy Friday!!!

This brings back good memories of overpowering. A single Evinrude 70 will get that boat right where it needs to be. Just make sure the trim works.
That was..
Absolutely AWESOME
Though I have never seen a jon boat with a V bow
Looks like a great time 🎉🎉
Might I suggest blind rivets. really had to punch compared to a regular pop rivet, but a 5.5mm drill, a bag of 5.2mm blindrivets and your favoured goop, +5 exp every rivet. works very well.
Man I wish you would’ve gotten me blowing the air horn at you when you left the boat yard on 50 lol
I could be wrong but I don't think 2 motors really gives you more speed but gives you more pulling power.
Ues dublet fuke use wastage gss
That was freaking awesome. Great ideas come from thinking outside the box. 👍
Reminds me of Dons Marine Salvage in Clearwater Florida!! So fun to just look around!
Looks like you had some fun with it anyway ❤❤❤
I feel like Luke drives to the yard to cook every meal on his crab boat engine no matter where he is
Twin motors are fun but you should try my twin motors into one prop race boat one time. Ferd can tell you all about it.
Great video, bummer you never got to skin-it back with 1 person. PT2 ?!!
Until you feel it about to strip and back off about a quarter turn. Wow I love it.
You built me a boat?? How thoughtful!!! When could I pick it up?
I want to see videos of the desperado project!
Back in 2002, I put a new Merc 25 (two stroke) on my 12foot custom glass marsh boat. After several duck hunts with it, I got a GPS to test the top speed.

oh Luke you provide hours of enjoyment...... keep it coming its gonna be a long winter ahead..... PAm your best PEnnsylvania fan.....
You need a Luke approved Jack plate to get more speed… a bottle Jack comes to mind 🤔
Another great Luke video!!!
Thanks for watching!
If you ain't got random motors laying around in your yard. You ain't no crabber 😂😂
You all have way to much fun!!!
Love the shenanigans Luke. We're not here for a long time so might as well have a good time. 😂😂😂
The spark check test methods love it .
Next episode...."Learning how to water ski" 😅😂😮😅
I was fairly sure this was the episode where I would find out if Luke knows how to swim or not
I though there was no reason to have two except to make it wild and crazier! But you said it was for speed. Do I really believe that.
Wish we could stuff like this in the UK loveing the videos
These have to go on the 6ft dinghy next.
21:50
An actual hammer!
I could be wrong but if you have twice the power and similar top speed I would think you can gain speed with more prop. It definitely has no problem getting on plane 😂
I am interested in boat motor restoration videos. And boat camping videos. Not enough full blown boat camping going on. Great videos!

One big issue is not having counter rotating Props. That will give you a deficiency.
Never lose your sence of adventure keep it coming
Ever think Of Kevlar Fiber? Or the Hybrid Fiber? Awesome prices at US Composites and PreCut Strips so be easy to use.
You probably need to increase the pitch on those props. If the engine can hit max RPM with just one engine, you're probably hitting the rev limiters when running 2. An increase of 2" in pitch would probably do it.
I'm here for these kind of vids nothing better than experimentation, next you need to put a Mercury 450R outboard on a jon boat.
Oxe 450 doseel hybrude
They 1:36 should be counter rotation to keep your boat straight. Not super necessary but gives you “drivability” “maneuverability”
Man 2weeks and not even 40 minutes?? Come on Luke !!!
Looks like fun!!
Over the winter, you should patch the whole bottom of the boat or you go up and down the runners on the bottom was like some 5200
Should watch a TH-cam video how to do wheel bearing love from Australia
You need higher pitch props. Power doesn't matter if you ain't turning enough pitch.
