1978 motor with 11 pitch aluminum propeller. Boat was 1448 Generation III, riveted, with 2 persons and dog, marine battery and 3 gallons of gas. Tops 27 MPH.
Late 1970s- early 80s OMCs were my favorite era for small utility outboards. If responsibly used and maintained, they seemed to have a nearly infinite lifespan.
Great throttle and stick steering idea,LOL .Was guessing you would do 25MPH with two people and a dog I was close you were at 27MPH. I rebuilt one of those 1978 35HP in the mid nineties for a customer great motors... Well done!!! Glenn P.
These were/are good motors. The 11” pitch will give you a bit more hole shot than the 13” and the 13 a little more top speed but slower hole shot. A tach always helps.
I remember back in 1980 , My Dad had bought a New 1980 Mirrocraft 14 ft. Open fishing boat 3 rows of bench seats. Deep Fisherman model with an 80 Johnson 25 hp long shaft tiller with Electric start. Wow , That boat with that 25 hp Johnson was Fast. That lil 14 ft. Mirrorcraft was rated 35 hp max. That was a good lil boat and had caught Alot of fish.
A good 35 will turn a 15 pitch prop without lugging on a boat like that. You mostly see 11 pitch props on these 35's for a pontoon set-up. You may be over-revving with an 11 on a light boat like yours.
Hello I have a question,I have a 1978 25hp evinrude,if I take the carb off a 1975 35hp Johnson and put it on my 1978 25 evinrude,will I see a difference in speed ?

Nice job. I just got a 25hp, 1978 model running again. It's a bit rough around the edges but still goes.

Mine is a 1979 35hp I got it on a 1436 I get 29 out of it with my old lady daughter cooler and fishing gear loaded up
@@christopherlarratt548Very Nice!
Lowe boats are awesome
I really really like ur videos, keep up the good work!
I like how you use a hot foot for the throttle and just a stick to steer
The Best money can buy.
that is such a clean motor for 78, such a time capsule of what used to be the industry standard, thanks for uploading great content great channel.

Wow that is super clean . Must never seen saltwater. I got one for free and want to get it going but seems the lower is stuck in gear.
Turn the throttle all the way to the right clockwise and try it.
How much RPM with full gas?
Take off motor cover, run wide open see if RPM is higher with cover off, air in take hole may be to small
Very nice. I like the custom setup. Nice dog too. What happened to the little white dog?
Thanks for sharing .

Nice set up ! What app on your phone are you using?
patriot 64 none. I am videoing with Sony camera and using car GPS.
@@vojomatusenko thanks, I have goggle maps and it doesn't look like yours. I was just curious, I like the way yours looks.

I was thinking the same thing about over revving. Hard to say without a tach.
How much is fuel consumption in 1 hour
I’m looking to buy a lightweight Fast 20-30hp motor. Who makes the fastest? The reason I say 20-30hp is I don’t know if 30hp is always faster than 25?

Can you use ordinary 2 stroke in this engine thanks
Fionn O'Brien yes, you can use ordinary 2 stroke oil to mix with gas for this motor.
Do you have a way to contact you? I could really use some advice for my 2000 15hp Honda.
Terry Stewart vojomatusenko@yahoo.com
My 30hp do 30 on my boat .
Do you sell any of these motors?
too small pitch
Put a life jacket on your dog.
I really wanted to watch this but shit, can't hear you talking at all. !!!!!
