- First use of the Mercury 6Hp on the Talamex QLA350.
Coming from the Mariner 5Hp 17 years old, that has been very reliable but could not get me in plane. The Mercury is not much quieter nor does it have less vibrations. But the power and acceleration make up for all that.
Mercury, Mariner, and Evinrude all have the same Tohatsu outbourd.
The gear shift is great, and not all of the previously mentionned motors have a small tank on the unit. The Mercury has that, and it makes for a great reserve fuel tank.
If you have any questions on the equipment used in the video, I would be happy to answer them. Not sponsored.

excellent video I liked your information about the boat and the engine, greetings from Chile
Thank you, merry Christmas from the Netherlands 👍🏻
Wow, I have an older 1995 Merc 4hp on my zodiac and it won't plane, the 6 looks like a rocket compared to it. I am looking at 2018 right now. I think this convinced me
hello, from which supplier did you take them please
Bel video
Grazie mille
Hello friend:)
Thanks for video.
Does your Mercury has short leg(~380mm) ?
Short
Is this the 270cm version? Do you think it will fit 2 adults + 2 children? Thanks!
Its the 350cm version, and yes that would fit.
Mede dankzij jouw pracht video's heb ik een splinternieuwe 6 pk Tohatsu gekocht en de eerste 3 uur (van de 10) invaren zitten er op, met een Talamex 300 TLX (alu). Was heerlijk. Toch weer een vraagje, welke benzine gebruik jij?
Gewoon loodvrij van de Shell, wel goed leeg draaien eind van het seizoen. Gefeliciteerd!
15 inch or 20 inch shaft length ?
It’s called short shaft, do not know dimensions you mention
@@BCBoatsAndCanoes thanks, = 15 inch then by U.S. spec. They have a lot of 20 inch online to buy when I was looking but it's considered too long for small boat, yet they say it would work.. your setup is most correct for shaft length then in that regard and provides most speed as such...
How many feet is your boat?
3,5m
Hi there is this a short shaft or long shaft outboard please?
Short !
Many thanks, I've just purchased a mercury long shaft by accident for my dingy , should of got the short shaft instead . Think I will sell it on.
Mike, if your transom height is around 16” you’re better of with the short shaft. If it is around 20” you can use the one you have.
Thanks for watching.
@@mikeweldon9971 These motors are 15" inch Short or 20" long. I have a 20" on my 2.7m dinghy VERY similar to this one in the video. Works great. (Some manufacturers count 20" as short shaft still). it is certainly on the upper limit on the short shaft range. Useful having the 20" if like me you use the motor on both the dinghy as a tender to a larger boat, where I use it as a trolling motor and emergency kicker motor. 6 hp wont get you anywhere fast on the stern of a 24' launch but it will still give you steering and a nominal forward speed until help arrive. most useful as a trolling motor on the 24' launch. Great motors.
Many thanks for this information mark , much appreciated.
Soo cool
Thanks for watching
Muito.lindo seu CONJUNTO!
Obrigada
Hallo, hoe pompt u de boot op?
Met de hand pomp die bij de boot zat. Vervoer de boot opgepompt. Bedankt voor het kijken.
How fast MPH?
25kmh
How are you finding the talamex dinghy I have just purchased a 270 air am happy with it but not sure on quality and if it will last
Kept it outside standing on the cones, in direct sunlight. No issues so far, very impressed with the quality.
Only had to re tighten the screws under the wooden seat ones, but that is after 250hrs of use.
I would expect 5 to 10 years of use, depending on how you store it.
Thanks for watching !
wot, 1l per hour? I don't think so... speed 20 kmh ? you are doing it wrong ...
How fast it goes?
Senne Oosterhoff average 20km/h top speed 25km/h
same boat and 2,5 hp motor. 8km/h
rigging length in your motor?
short, if you mean how deap
Zo kut dat je in Nederland deze constructie al moet registreren en met een brandblusser en reddingsvesten aan boord moet gaan zitten. Gaat nergens over.. ben je ook aangesproken door de politie?
3x deze combinatie is legaal zonder vaarbewijs
@@BCBoatsAndCanoes in de comments zeg je 25kmpu was dat een typ foutje dan?
@@japyoo2248 Als meneer de agent maar denkt dat hij niet harder kan als 20....
Moet je natuurlijk niet gezien worden dat je aan het stunten bent.
You like to live dangerously--not using safety kill switch lanyard and no life jacket.
Not taking those precautions has a certain risk, you are correct.
But “living dangerously” does not apply to my life in general.
Thanks for watching, and the safety comment.
