    Motor for 17' Landau

    With out a picture the best I can figure is that the boat has a max rating of 80hp.It is most likely a Magnum TR.

    new to me motor

    Thanks for the tips .Pulled the fly wheel today and checked the coils ,condenser, and points every thing looked brand new no cracking at all and tested ok. Pulled the carb and it was clean., gear oil was clean too. Will mix oil a little heavy and run it like breaking in a new motor. Was told it...

    Gas friendly hp size

    With 2 persons and fully loaded it runs 25 to 28 miles an hour. This is a fiberglass boat and is pretty heavy.
