    Mercury 60 vs. Johnson 60 vs. Evinrude 70

    A compression test and a check of the lower units for a "Milkshake" on all three may help you decide.

    Yamaha or Mercury

    Which one has a long lasting timing chain and not a corner cutting belt? Hint it starts with an "S".

    12V - 55# - Group 31DC - Approx. Run Time on 16' Alumacraft

    18 year old 43lb Motor guide 12V, 27 month old East Penn group 31 AGM on a 1652 Weld-Craft/60HP Zuke. I have a volt meter on the battery. I lose 2-2.5 tenths of a volt for every continuous hour use on low speed.

    '89 Evinrude 70 hp, maybe

    I guess those numbers are off the freeze plugs. If the carb throat diameter is different between the 60/70 you might be able to use that as an indicator.

    2020 Tohatsu 50 Bad performance, Is It My Prop?

    I would start considering a new prop, and I would highly recommend getting a tach before you do to help choose the right size. I could definitely see how that "Compromised" blade contributes to your ventilation issue in turns.

    Post a Pic of your boat!

    Water was low in that pic. We walked the boat over 3 sandbars that day. Jets are not needed in most of the area we frequent, mostly sandy bottom around Ocala NF.

    Flotation pods on a bass boat?

    I wouldn't own a jon without them. I'm amazed how much of the hull I can fly at cruise speed without purposing. They act like the mother of all trim tabs, this directly equates to much less whetted surface and increased fuel mileage. I have a group 31 and group 27 AGM's under front casting...
