    Great kit! In the summer, I drove this with a similar forced lifan gs212e engine (6000 rpm max).

    Did u remove the engine governor cause it seems to be bogging at higher speeds or ur tune is off and needs more fuel on the top end. I know the video is old lol.

    Great video! How shallow can you confidently run? And how is turning around in those tight creeks? I’m thinking about a flat bottom build to get deeper into tidal marshes here in DE

    Nice Video, I just took my 12' Jon out for its first voyage with the Mudskipper and it did great. My transom seems fine but do you add extra bracing?? or just rebuild a rotted transom??? thanks Mack

      I replaced the wood with a larger piece and had a friend weld some extra aluminum to key points of the transom to handle the extra weight and force of the motor. The boat was so old the metal used was pretty thin. Wouldn't need to do all that with a newer jon boat.

    I just got a 1974 Sears 12' that my grandpa bought new. I want to build a long tail 6.5 with a predator engine but can't decide what kit to get. What did you use?

    How much does the motor weigh?

    • @zacharyguida6869
      @zacharyguida6869  5 лет назад

      I think the motor weighed around 35 and the ponytail kit weighed about the same.

      It's a sears 12 ft Jon boat that's a 1970's model. All rivets have been redone and transom rebuilt to handle the extra weight

    The diy kits are cheap and cool. But they are loud!
