You won't even believe if i told you how many times i looked up "big motor small boat" over the years on youtube, and i was never fully satisfied. Until today, when i randomly came across this video. This is it!👏
In the late 70's, my brother bought a 14' Glastron with an old, heavy, 4cyl, 85hp Evinrude. The boat was rated for only 65hp. It topped in at 56mph! He burned up the 85 pretty quick. Replaced it with 75hp 3cyl "racing motor" (I think it was originally "Hustler" but tweaked) and a much bigger (21 inch pitch) prop. Hole Shot was measured in minutes! But, from on plane to 55mph was seconds, the hull mostly left the water and would rock side to side! At 60mph the rocking stopped and the hull completely out of the water! It maxed out at 72mph! First time I ever water skied was behind that boat. I had been skiing less than 5 minutes EVER! and the high school football coach started to pass us. The coach's new 21' bass boat, with a 200hp Mercury, (he bragged) could top in at 55. As the coach got next to us, made eye contact with my brother, he slammed his throttle. My Brother looked back at me for about a millisecond, then slammed his throttle too! SO, My First Time Ever Water Skiing, we shot by the coach at about 65mph!!! I was Terrified, I didn't know how to fall, or let go of the rope, but at 14yo in front the coach, I was Joe Cool! A month later and just a week before my freshman year, the school photographer snapped a picture... I was on a slalom with a cheerleader on my shoulder behind that little boat!
I had 250 stitches in my head after i put a 150 black max on my 13 foot Boston Whaler back in the early 90s. Ran over by my own boat after i was ejected.
We had one of those puppies on the back of my dad's 17ft when I was a kid. It had to have giant fins on the cavitation plate to stop porpoising. One day we were out and the battery died, and the old boy pull started that mf with a random length of cordage we found on board. We made it home. Memories.
i really enjoyed watching this. when i was young i put an 40 hp on a 14 ft sailboat hull that was damaged in a storm. cut the keel and used 2 one inch marine plywood to make the transom. it used to bob up and down and then jump out of the water much like your test did. i tied a rope from the bow that i could hold on to. watching you made me think back to that. thank you for that. can't wait for your next video.
Life long boat lover here! Even had a small engine boat repair business for a time so I can put myself in your shoes somewhat. That being said I was laughing my ass off and scared for my life within the same breath and I’m just watchin! This is great stuff right here!!
When were kids probably 15 my Dad had a 14’ Sears Jon Boat, I grew in Florida, it had a 4.5hp Sears out board which was just a dog of a motor. My neighbor and buddy of mine’s Dad had a 18hp Evinrude. With two people in it, it was scary fast. Now I’m 64 and after seeing this I think we were fairly sane. I just laughed for 10 mins. Awesome! You guys have huge balls!👍
@@a64738My speedboat has a deep V hull and is just under 13 feet with a 40hp outboard, it handles fine on full throttle (in calm conditions.) With anything bigger on the back I’d be more concerned about the tail heavy trim than the propeller torque.
Only fjj look at hull would be a Carolina skiff definitely not a Jon boat. Seriously didn’t think would glitch wright if the 200 merc . Keep experimenting… and keep a friends close by in another boat 🤭🏹
Gotta get the prop shaft higher in relation to the bottom of the hull. You drop it deeper and it’s going to porpoise even more. Don’t need a lot of trim either. Not sure of the clearance on that lower unit, but try running a hub less prop; small eared chopper or lightning ET. Ideally, if you put a 4-6” jack plate on it to get farther behind the transom, that might help with the porpoising and cavitation as well. Good job wearing a helmet, life jacket, and having a crash boat with you.
Would strongly recommend getting a 3 blade prop with a lot more pitch it won’t have as much torque but you’ll be able to give it some throttle without flipping backwards and fearing for your life and if your ever able to run wide open which I highly doubt it’ll be a lot faster. You could easily run a 26p or 28p prop on that boat. Also this is FUCKING AWESOME
It’s got some pitch on that prop by the looks! and adding more will likely not drop torque on such a light hull it’ll probably just kick it out harder on less throttle
@crashalexander7232stop commenting on shit u know Nuthing about! Adding pitch will reduce low end torque but add to top speed ! On this set up adding pitch won’t do a damn thing but make it uncontrollable at wot
Cool. I put a Merc 50 4 cylinder on my 1959 14 ft runabout . It sits up 3 inches and 6 inches back on a Panther tilt unit. The looks I got on the lake were priceless
Lived out my fantasy vicariously through your video! I'm not as young and crazy as you anymore. I'm retiring a 140 from a tour boat and was thinking about putting it on a small boat for grins. I don't need to anymore. Will probably just sell it. 😁
All my life I wondered what it would be like to put a 150 or a 200 on a flat bottom aluminum boat! I I think a Jack plate and trim tabs would make it more stable! Also a bilge pump is super simple to install,
That was my uncle. 150 on his aluminium flatbottom. And nothing would touch it. Id say it was realistically just a "fast as you could handle" boat. Wed run in 2" of water in the flats like nothing. Lol
Thanks dude! Now I can show my son what would happen to our 14 footer if we replaced our 20hp with that monster. He’ll probably still want to try it, anyway. Love your spirit man, keep chasing life!
Awesome stuff. I figured the back of the boat wouldn't be able to float from the weight of the big motor but it handled it much better than I expected 👍
Years back I saw a similar build on the indian river in florida, it was probably around 14-16' long with much higher freeboard than this but otherwise a typical stripper single hull aluminum jon boat with a 250 HP yamaha four stroke on it. When i asked the guy how fast it was he said it depends on how brave you are.
I’d just fill the whole boat with flotation foam that way you can at least tow it back when it flips 😂 shocked the boat structure even held up that long.
My friends and I done this 30 years ago with a Johnson 88 and 14ft semi V aluminum boat. We raced cars on Sanibel Island Causeway with it. Est speed well over 60mph and thats with 3 of us on that boat. And yes, if we stopped, down it would go! Had to use the fish house lift to keep it from sinking when the fun was done.
HAND SALUTE to you guys! Totally enjoyed watching your journey with this concept. The home do it yourselfer rigging & design is always interesting. Be safe! 👍
Ohhh yes! We've all thought about it. We all knew it would take a real Florida man to get er done. Good job! I can't wait to see the improvements and more ripping! Looking through the channel now and you guys are killing it. Much love from a little ways down I-4 in Lakeland 🖖
I have a 9’ sears v-haul from the sixties that I putt around with a five horse. My 16’ Jon boat has a 25 horse Yamaha 2 stroke that I have always been tempted to try on my v-haul. I am definitely doing it now!
I ran a 9.9 on a 10 ft jonboat many moons ago and had a blast! But 200 on a 14 ft... that's freaking hilarious😂. Thanks for doing this and sharing the vids. I can't quit laughing 😆
I did the same thing back in the 80's. Same 10 foot Jon boat and a Merc 9.9. Only the back 6 inches of the boat stayed in the water after planing! Scary as hell on the creeks!
I used to daydream about something like a 45 hp or so on a 12 ft John and just imagined it coming nose up out of the water and flipping but you guys took this to an insane level amd made it work so good!!! We fished a small nitro 17ft years ago and thought going from 115 to 150 would be disaster, now im really rethinking that it may have been just fine to do with the right mods!
Put a 20 hp on a flat backed canoe did fine till the big turn, the motor kept going with the stern for about a quarter mile while we sank in the rest of it.
This was awesome. I’d love to see y’all do this with a big sailboat. I’ve seen one video of a sailboat with a big outboard and it looked like a ton of fun, especially when you consider those things are generally floating houses.
@@shem7974 you’d think that, but I’ve seen a video on the internet that I haven’t been able to find since I saw it of a massive 30 ft sailboat with a 200 outboard on the back towing a tube around a lake, doing a good 25 knots and swerving like they were trying to capsize it. Yes, hull speed is a thing, but hull speed doesn’t matter when you have so much power you basically force it into planing.
My brothers and I had a 75hp Evenrude on a 15ft Ebbtide Dynatrack tri-hull and it would stand up like that, but at full throttle not idle. Freaked out a lot of unsuspecting passengers with it haha! Wild! 🤘😂
I once had an 18 ft Jon boat with a 115 hp Mariner outboard on it. Had to put an anti cavitation plate on the lower unit to get it to handle right. Had an 18 pitch power prop on it. Bringing it up on plane was instant. No hesitation whatsoever. I was a commercial diver collecting fresh water mussels. Sometimes we would have hundreds of pounds of shells plus all the equipment. Other than being such a gas hog, it was a great piece of equipment.
Nice work! This is how I remember my childhood. Small 11ft "Tinny" with too much outboard and positive trim. Look at the Supa Skua videos from Australia for how it's done.
My buddy had a 40hp Yamaha with all kinds of stuff done to it on a 12ft monarch aluminum boat. It would run 63-65 with both of us. It was crazy fast. It was almost hard to stay in the boat.
Cool test. When u added the weight at the front it got more stable. This is why I think boat builders spec their boats to the motor size. Cuz the misconception Is if you’d take a big motor an drop it on a smaller boat it automatically be faster.
Well of course it'll be fast, but hull TYPE plays probably the BIGGEST part in a hull's abilities!! Think about all of the little funnel hulls with F1 merc motors on 'em, and then there's always the little Allison hulls and of course the lil Hydrostream's and Lasers etc..
I once saw someone put cinder blocks in the front of their boat for counterweight, but they didn't secure them at all. Worked fine until they hit a big wave and it flipped the blocks back into their lap.😆
In the early 2000's I used to fish 5k yards of gill net out of a 14'5 foot Carolina skiff with a 40 hp Mariner and I thought that was sketchy 😂......Flat bottom boats and turning do not mix. Awesome video brother.
I'd love to see you put a steering wheel at the front along with the throttle controls. Would help balance the weight on the boat and be a lot easier to handle.
I came here to see if someone had mentioned this. They could make the throttle and steering arm extra long so their weight in the front of the boat would even it out. Possibly maybe.
I had a 20 hp Merc. On the same exact kind of Jonboat. It threw roostertails at 25 mph. Almost losing control. Diamond Valley lake California. What a ride. Some of the best times of my life.
Damn i love multi-cylinder two strokes! I had an old 75 hp 3 cylinder two stroke that I’d run with the garden hose in front of the house just to scare the neighbors. The sound and smell of a two stroke in salt water is the best.
I always say there's a fine line between what could and what should be done..... lmao😅 I've gota say this invention straddles the line! 😅😂 that said it's bloody awesome and I want to see more! 🎉

Think about all of the little funnel hulls with F1 merc motors on 'em, and then there's always the little Allison hulls and of course the lil Hydrostream's and Lasers etc..
I've had a 260HP Merc disguised as a 135HP on a 16ft fiberglass, for like 20 plus years, goes 70MPH +, coast guard tags and all. It can be done.
Chuck Yeager would be loving this….. top work boys. Cheers from NZ
As an 8 year old child this crossed my mind, it has been a long wait of 5 decades but now I finally have the answer, many thanks! 👍🏻
I once saw someone put cinder blocks in the front of their boat for counterweight, but they didn't secure them at all. Worked fine until they hit a big wave and it flipped the blocks back into their lap.😆
Super ouch
I Love it. Yall gave me hope in the younger generation. Yall made me A proud American🇺🇸 I Salute you Gentleman..
Who else seen the lake patrol lookin for this guy 😂
This is really dangerous! I love it.
Would be interesting to cut a center hole /box it -> Mid Engine.
Should be stable then.
Dude I'm gonna follow you for sure. Anyone crazy enough to try this type of shit out I'm watching and telling my fishing buddy's
Is that a old ratchet as a shifter handle?
It sure is!
In the early 2000's I used to fish 5k yards of gill net out of a 14'5 foot Carolina skiff with a 40 hp Mariner and I thought that was sketchy 😂......Flat bottom boats and turning do not mix. Awesome video brother.
Growing up on the obx ...I know where ya coming from..
Crazy guys. What lake is this? Looks like a great place to fish.
The cops in lex after you after this one😂
This is what RUclips is made for , awesome creation
I'd love to see you put a steering wheel at the front along with the throttle controls. Would help balance the weight on the boat and be a lot easier to handle.
I came here to see if someone had mentioned this. They could make the throttle and steering arm extra long so their weight in the front of the boat would even it out.
Possibly maybe.
Goodbye spine
You sir earned a subscriber for this awesome video !!!
Guys got some balls for sure dude 🤘 rock n roll
I had a 20 hp Merc. On the same exact kind of Jonboat. It threw roostertails at 25 mph. Almost losing control. Diamond Valley lake California. What a ride. Some of the best times of my life.
So much fun, thoroughly enjoyed the video.
I love how there is just never even any consideration of putting in a sump pump. Lol
helmet check, scars from other superb decisions check!!! love it
Popping wheelies like crazy.
I was nervous about running 45 horse merc on my 16’ Jon boat 😂 I ain’t worried at all now.
Laugh out loud pure entertainment. Thanks for risking everything, making the vid and posting it.
Damn i love multi-cylinder two strokes! I had an old 75 hp 3 cylinder two stroke that I’d run with the garden hose in front of the house just to scare the neighbors. The sound and smell of a two stroke in salt water is the best.
I wouldn’t attempt this without an enclosed sealed chamber built in to make sure it doesn’t sink all the way. Expensive engine to lose.
You guys answered my question on how big of a motor I can put on a Jon boat. 😂 Good job
So .I'm trying to figure how much it's gonna cost to bring it back up and Clear it out to start again..😊
That man legitimately risked his life for my entertainment. Thank you, sir.
Did you smack that bird at 4:58??
I always say there's a fine line between what could and what should be done..... lmao😅 I've gota say this invention straddles the line! 😅😂 that said it's bloody awesome and I want to see more! 🎉
Tons of fun. Thanks
This man deserves your subscription just for his near death experience!
Well done. I love it.
