I recently bought two non running 6 hp 2 stroke motors. One is a 1969 Evinrude and the other is a 1969 Johnson, and after some minor carb rebuilding, new fuel pumps, and an impeller replacement, they both run really well. I plan to get one of them out on the lake in a couple weeks paired with my 14 ft flat bottom Jon Boat. The speeds shown on each of your engines is about what I'm hoping for. Somewhere around 17 mph. Nice video.
Great video lads. I just got myself a new Suzuki 6hp 4 stroke (DF6A) and an inflatable but looking to get a tinny for it too. Surprised the bigger Sea Jay 350 was so quick ! Was expecting the traveller to be the quickest. Great work
Yea the seajay nomad tinny go so good I also have another mate with a 370 nomad and that still goes really good The nomad tinnys with 6hp evenrude or mercs go perfect together
After watching this I'm going with a 6hp 4 stroke Tohatsu on a 1990 3.6m Stacer and yeah no boat licence required. What really surprised me is the get up and go they all have and at first I thought they'd be put, put, put.
I have the same mercury 6 hp 2017 but my boat has a gullwing shape. İt goes maximum 9-10 mph and the engine runs with way less rev. How can I make more speed?
Hi guys. anti cavitation plate (a flat plate just above prop) must set at same horizontal level of lowest boat bottom aft. Some say it is better if you get it half inch higher. So combination of design measurements of your boat and engine plays big role. P/s ; for Suzuki 6hp should use 6inch prop to get around 5k rpm or slightly higher.
@@chematchemat6775 Thank you very much. I made some adjustments and now it is doing 19 knots. Thanks for everything like engine extension arm weight regulation bro👍
Nope, my Merc 6 outruns my mates Suzuki 6, both on the same west marine performance 310 rib, I'm 15lbs heavier too, both with 8 pitch prop, the Merc walks away every time..
A proper test would be using the same boat for each motor test
Yes i should have done that but I was just doing speed test to show who’s boat and motor combo was the fastest
That Mercury and Evinrude were both made by Tohatsu. Any speed difference comes down to boat type and propeller selection.
Yea

Looking for a 6 hp now. Good video
Steve in Florida I enjoyed your video thank you for doing it wow the Suzuki and merc surprised me along with the evinrude
Love these little 12-14 aluminum boats

That mercury is made by Tahatsu and is fine Japan quality
I wasn't aware that Evinrude even had a 4 stroke option?
I know you guys are young, but you got to get your hands on some old two stroke outboards,
Evinrude 8hp is sweet
Why's the camera so foggy
All three outboards should have been compared on the same boat.
How many knots can the Suzuki go
How much do those boats weigh in pounds?
I've got a 14 foot jon boat that weighs 150 lbs
How much do those boats weigh in pounds?
About 40kg so 100 lbs roughly give or take 30 lbs
Domanda?per farlo andare cosi in che posizione si trova 1 _2_3 posizione?
yeah ya wouldn't want a fight with a 6HP motor
What app do you use to track speed
I used this app on my phone not sure what it’s called but I use a Garmin 95sv now
Dedicated to those who think that they need 3000 hp to move quick on the water
I have a 1648 Jon boat and my Mercury 6hp pushes it at 11MPH
Nice that's alright
How much do you think the boats weigh? Specifically the ones with the merc and Suzuki
My boat with the Suzuki is a 315 traviller weighs 63kg hull only and my mates with the Merc is a 340 cartopper weights 50kg hull only

Not really shore bro most of the time it depends on how much weight Is in the boat but could also be to big of a prop if it’s not stock.
@@DraysFishing Thank you a lot, might be the heavyness of my boat didnt thought it would be.
@@ozkayozkay8785 raise the motor up 25mm get a one size smaller pitch prop you should increase speed dramatically

Merc rules!
Haha
All the same props?
all different props and different pins
How many horses
1 Kilometre Per hour is 1000 metres per hour
1Mile per hour is 1620 metres per hour
1nautical mile per hour (knots) is 1852 metres per hour.
Good job bossku 🤙
Ore nnayu?
how does a 6hp go with 2 or 3 people you reckon on a 10ft to 12ft tinny
Have a look at a few TH-cam videos. Should go pretty good tho
What app
It's called GPS speedometer
@@DraysFishing thanks mate
They would be a lot faster with a jack plate and a dolphin
What tinnie
WTF. miles per hour? have you heard of kilometres?
Probably should change it to km
please dont use that type of language, mikey.
Mph or knots are the primary speed measurements for marine applications.
We all know suzuki it the faster,. Thats why he put it under the sit bro,. And more thing he should only use one Boat to test! 👎
Nope, my Merc 6 outruns my mates Suzuki 6, both on the same west marine performance 310 rib, I'm 15lbs heavier too, both with 8 pitch prop, the Merc walks away every time..
hI
Suzuki 6 o Yamaha 6 o Mercury 6 - Tohatsu 6?
Which more fast?
Thanks from spain
Depends on what size boat you have it on
@@DraysFishing Thank you
Have zodiac 3,60 - 50 kg
I find if it’s a lighter boat the Yamaha will go faster but it still depends.
