Well, I have decided instead to sell my yamaha 9.9 and just buy something new. I was looking at the suzukis, and noticed they have a 9.9 high thrust which has the same displacement as their 20hp. Is this 9.9 just a choked down version of the 20hp, maybe it has a cam stop?

I have a 1987 Yamaha 9.9SH. Im going to rebuild my carb, but I was wondering if anyone knows if the 15hp carb is different than the 9.9 other than jetting and main nozzle? I figure while its apart I may as well change that stuff out too, unless the actual carb itself has a bigger intake. I...

So heres the deal. I remodeled my back deck last season in my 1542, and im not too happy with the way it came out. I also put new carpeting on the back deck and floor, and I was going to recarpet the front this year. Now im thinking, since I dont like the back deck and im going to pull the front...

So I'm a bit indecisive these days. I have my back deck apart, replacing my live well. I thought now would be a good time to recarpet since it is apart. The current carpet in my boat is a bit slippery when it rains, so if I'm going to redo the back I'm gonna do it all. At the same time, I'm...

The aluminum prop on my 9.9 yamaha needs to be replaced. Its a 9.25x9 pitch. I'm thinking of going to a SS prop. Currently at WOT I'm turning 5130rpms, 16 mph at full load. The rpm range for my Yamaha is 4500-5500. I would like to see some more top speed, but I'm wondering if I will actually...

Is anyone familiar with yamahas? I have an '87 9.9, and im looking to swap out the carb and reeds for 15hp parts. I know the carb that I need, my question is about the reeds. Do i need the whole new reed assembly, or can I just get the 15hp reeds?

So I have had my Tracker 1542 for a couple of years now. Its a pretty stable boat and its really light, but the build didnt come out exactly as I wanted it to. So instead of redoing the whole thing , I was thinking about getting into either an all welded 1448, or go with a bigger riveted boat...

So I was thinking about adding a cooling system to my livewell. All the ones I have seen run throught the recirc pump. I usually run my livewell with the intake pump bringing in fresh water and only use the recirc when the boat is on the trailer. So my question is, if I install one of these...

Im thinking about getting a new prop for my 9.9 Yamaha. The aluminum one it came with is pretty dinged up. I would like to get a stainless steel prop, but would also like to get a couple more mph out of the boat. Right now the aluminum prop is 9.25x9 and runs at 5130 rpm with full load, at about...

Well it appears my 9.9 Yamaha has ans external magneto control, does anyone know why? What is its purpose?

So I finally got around to working on the boat today.I removed the livewell that came in the center seat in order to make that seat a dry storage area for tackle. I also was able to cut out the back seat to fit the cooler I will be using for the livewell. This weekend i'll probably do the...

Long story short, I just make new bunks on a trailer I got dirt cheap. I used some PT 2x4's I had lying around, and covered them in carpet. Im not exactly sure how old the PT wood is, my guess is at least a few years old. Of course now I read about the dangers with PT wood and aluminum. My boat...

Here are some pics of my G3 1436 just before I sold it. I just bought a tracker 1542 as my next project. I had the G3 for about 8 years, the front deck design changed a couple of times throughout. I have some pics of the building process somewhere, I will post them when I find them. My original...
