Great job

How has this paint held up? I’m thinking about doing the same.

Do you have the link to the rub rail, or the exact name to look up?

Have been going out there since the late 80s. Used to never see a soul out there back then

I'm probably hitting the water with my kayak there this evening. How far have you been back there? I just recently started fishing it with a boat / kayak. I lived all my life right down the road and been there many times throughout the years. Just rarely by boat.

you eat any of them you catch?

This happened to me today

Hey man I’m in the Fayetteville area would love to come check out you boat as I just bought a j14 myself and I’m looking to put a console on mine and love the build nice boat and god bless

Hey you in Crystal River FL???

You know, Just an idea you could get a low voltage computer fan to pull heat out. Connect to battery with a switch to turn off and on. Your idea is amazing I did the same thing because of you. But with the fan :) Thanks for the money saving idea.

I was having the same problem yesterday with a 2stroke 8hp, so I added a one inch chunk of rubber flooring the same width as the transom and it completely solved the water coming over the stern. According to the Suzuki manual the transom was already at the specified height of 15", but it definitely wasn't working regardless of trim.

They were absolutely amazing to work with when I bought my 20 as well! Great folks no doubt!

Just "discoveed" this area looking at google maps and was curious, your video is a big help! What do you mean by "see beaver dam" on the red cons slide?

17” transom needs a short shaft. For some reason short shaft ‘supposedly’ is 15” but they truly measure 17”. I always had to use a 2” spacer on top of my transom for best performance. I work on small short shaft outboards so when I rebuilt my transom, I made it 17” deep and now it’s perfect for short shaft motors.. Hope this helps somebody some day.

How’s the topside paint holding up?

Just put bennet trim tabs on my j12 .. boat couldnt plane out now it planes instantly

Need to caulk around boards again you have holes water can get in but will have a hard time escaping

good deal man. appreciate a review from someone old school like me

Do you need to put any kind of clear over that cans of splatter paint? I’m fixing to redo my Botton just trying to get ideas how to do it I want to do the top of mine like yours.

Thanks for the video, it helped me with my install.

Do you mind telling me where you can buy the actual factory style rub rail? I know you didn't want to mention it but i could really use it as ive tried to find it.

This is one of my teachers

Thanks for taking the time to do this. Kinda sketchy sending that much $ online to something you are not sure of. They are cheaper than any dealer even with left over stock.

👍🏻

Check the page of your prop you’re on the right track still may need a smaller pitch prop

Super Cool!

Tennessee is a conservative state, so it is legit! No commies there!

What do you do if you have a warranty concern with the engines ordered from them? I want to buy a small outboard from them.

That is a smart man thanks learn something new 👍

This was a great review. I wanted to see the dash and workings. I actually pick mine up this week. Getting excited to put it to work. I owned a 610xc. Reliable but way under powered for what I needed. So. Looking forward to the extra 200+cc.

Awesome video super encouraging

Why would you not take the time to just sand it down and make it look good now it looks like a pile of💩

nice

I love the 36 month warranty. When I was in college back in the 70s, I worked as a Kawasaki motorcycle mechanic. Kawasaki's are built like tanks. They take a lickin and keep on tickin.... Great review. Thanks RT

Good video. I'd would have added is a piece of 1/2" x 4" aluminum strip to run acrost your back transom so the motor mounts have a solid wider surface to grab onto. This would add a lot of stability to your transom. I would also add a 1/4" thick piece of vibration damping pad on the other side of the transome where the touches the boat.

Also, thanks,on behalf of the town, for a favorable review.

What about lower motor raise jackplate

He is from South Carolina, that explains the whining

YES,,EVERY THING YOU SAID IS TRUE

I just got a motor from them and they’re great. Thanks for the review

Love it man. Excellent job with the flooring and seating/storage ideas👌👍

Thanks for the review ! Weird thing is that I have mobility issues as well ! Been paralyzed from the waist down since birth. I've had a john deere gator TX, and a Honda pioneer 1000. One oddball question is , how is the seat height ? I tend to venture away from my vehicle at times , and since I can't walk , I'll be pulling myself up from the ground. I was going to buy another gator , but saw these. I used to work at a Kawi dealership , and only seen the Mules come in for service. Oil changes, and an air filter swap , and they went out the door . Great reliability and durability.

I have a very similar skiff, what kinda speed u get off the 25?

In the videos I have seen, the Honda 500 was LOUD. And the Mule seems quiet! Is it as quiet as it seems?

Good video. I just tried mine and im having the same issues .20" transom and 20 shaft mercury. Hole shot is no good and water coming over the transom and only revving 4200 should be 5500

Loved all your videos boss! I do have a question tho . The marble spray paint , have you had any problems with it coming off ? If I wipe mine aggressively it comes off . Did you clear over it?

been thinking in getting a j14 or j16 , how stable is your boat standing in it ?
