    Boating can be dangerous
    Always wear your lifejacket
    Never let go of the tiller when in motion
    Never start your motor when in forward or reverse
    Never operate while standing up
    Look for hazards before starting
    Don't start if you smell gas or see gas dripping from motor
    Know your water, know your boats limitations
    Many many more safety items to know. READ YOUR MANUAL and take a boating safety course

    Thanks for the video. Inherited a 1436 Jon boat , I’m new to the tiller motor. I’ve learned quickly until I master it I need to stay in smaller bodies of water with no currents. I find it difficult to manually adjust a 15.hp motor. Great videos, keep them coming.

    @brandonlee1396 Год назад +2

    I’m running a 6hp evinrude fisherman with a bigger tank on my crawdad with a new 3 blade and only hitting 14 mph. Do you think going to a smaller tank and adding a jack plate will help?

    • @Skinnyriver
      @Skinnyriver  Год назад +1

      Do you know what pitch prop you are using? If it’s a 7 I would try an 8 first before investing in anything else
      I think the smaller tank would a little bit. I would experiment with the trim positions and where you have your battery.
      If your anti cavitation plate is parallel with the bottom of the hull you shouldn’t need a Jack plate

    • @brandonlee1396
      @brandonlee1396 Год назад +1

      Yes sir I’m running a 8 inch pitch prop I have tried all my trim positions and 14 was all it had. The cavitation plate sits lower than the hull of my boat by at least 3 to 4 inches I have a jack plate already I just figured I would get a second opinion thank you for the reply.

    • @Skinnyriver
      @Skinnyriver  Год назад +1

      @brandonlee1396 yeah if you are 3-4 inches low that Jack plate may help. If you are planing out good then I would look at weight reduction and the Jack plate.
