My Honda Boat Motor BLEW UP - Repower or FIX?
HTML-код

- My Honda boat motor blew up, and we were forced to make the expensive decision, repower or replace? In this episode, I discuss what happened and how we will be remedying the situation with the help of Chris with Onsite Marine. Chris owns On-site marine along with Thompson's Auto Parts off of 41 in Ruskin, Florida. Can you believe I have lived here a decade and never even knew about this store? A boat supply store right in my back yard with all the marine accessories I could ever need.
That is one of the reasons I place emphasis on showing you around in this video. Chris is one of the few Suzuki dealers in this immediate area, but he services Yamaha, Honda, Mercury, and Suzuki motors. He is also mobile, so if you don't want to travel to him, he will gladly come to you. Watch as we remove the old motor and get "Big Red" prepared for her new 300 horsepower motor. "I just wanna go fast, Ricky Bobby." Be sure to check out Chris's Instagram and contact information below. Shop local, my beautiful friends:

Man what a candy store! Been a while since I've been on the channel ,man dude your channel has exploded with subs! Good going! Love the Suzuki engines! Tight lines to you and Chris!
I agree, I have been driving past it for a decade and never knew it was there. The page is doing well man, about to tick over to 100k. Seems like a long time coming lol.
Mike Mcelveen Tight Lines, Mike 💯
I kid you not. I just visited this store last Friday and today I found your video. I have a similar problem with my Honda outboard dying on me. Great information and great video. Thank you.
Why spend 3k fixing a lower unit when you can spend 30k on a new motor!
Hell of a sales pitch.
3K On a 20 year old motor lol. Yea your logic makes more sense. The 300 doesn't cost 30k. 👍
@@Saltyscales sorry, thought thats what the guy said. www.suzuki.ca/product/2021-df300ap/
$31,095 plus costs of rigging, new instruments, taxes etc. Well over 30,000.
Now if he said 13000 to repair that's closer.
@@percussion44cost is about 22 to 24k with rigging and install.
I thought the exact same thing. I would’ve spent the 3k.
Nice drone shots, I have lived in this area pretty much my entire life and never knew Thompson's auto parts was here. I will be a new customer for sure! The boat really is looking amazing, can't wait to see you back on the water!
Thanks, looking forward to being back. 👍
Yassssssss, shoutout to Chris with On Site! Can't wait to finish up the rigging on the motor, I am ready to go fishing on the SS boat. Tbh, I cant believe the lower unit had all that water in it. Shoot I know where I am going for all my boat and vehicle needs now.
Good times, wait until you all see the new motor. 👀
Can't wait to see the new motor installed captain. Thanking about repowering my boat or buying a bigger boat.
She is a beauty, who do you think you will go with?
@@Saltyscales The warranty on Suzuki is great.
@@UrbanFisherman Definitely impressive, the power of this beast is amazing.
Hey Josh, I don't want to assume so I will ask, are we going to see the new engine put on the boat? I was thinking instead of a catch, clean, and cook, you could make a catch, prep, and install video. Love Honda engines but have been blown away by the Suzuki engines. Dude your going to fly. Interesting tour of the auto parts store. Saw some things I had not expected. Looking forward to the power plant. 👍 Take Care, Stay Well, and God Bless my friends! ✝
For sure Dino stay tuned. We should definitely be moving fast in upcoming videos.
Hey almost to 100k subs Josh! Congrats!
Thanks bud 👍
Great video of the business. Sorry to hear you had to make an upgrade.
All is well, It was time. I was hoping to get another year out of the Honda. She still runs strong, just needs a lower unit.
Looking good Josh. I've been seeing a lot of hype around suzuki outboards lately but not much long term info. Are there any plans for a series on performance and reliability?
I would like to do videos on performance etc. They are a Japanese made motor with the best warranty in the business. What more could we ask for right?
The boat is really looking great! You will like the 303 products. They have a touchless sealant for your truck that awsome. You need to try that as well.
Thanks for the comment Jeff, so far the 303 has been great stuff. I just started using it on the vinyl and love it.
@@Saltyscales Then you are really going to like the sealant for your truck. Just wash the truck and spray it on while its wet. Truck stays cleaner much longer. Anyway, keep up the great videos they are very informative.
Boat is gonna be completely new soon... looking good!
Yes sir!
Wonderful fisherman, I wish you fishing a lot and have a nice time thankyo Friend 🎣 fishinge
Why thanks!
Man the way deermeatfordinners boat flys with his suzuki 300 i can only imagine it on a bay boat your gonna fly!
I've seen his video with the 300, looks good and he does move. 👍
His Rambo 27 looking good. Cant go wrong with Suzuki !!!
Can't go wrong with Suzuki. Best saltwater motors imo
I think they are definitely making a statement. For the price, warranty, and proven track record over the last five years. That is coming from someone who has only owned Yamaha's until I purchased this boat.
I work for Central Marine in St Pete give us a call we have the best prices for yamaha and Suzuki.
Thanks, Jordan but Chris with Onsite Marine has been good to us.
Ouch ! 💸💸.
24k ouch lol
Josh, there goes the kids collage fund ! 😆. Can you write it off as a you tube business expense ! 😳. ( Suzuki sponsor? ) 🤔
For sure can be written off. Suzuki didn't do much to sponsor us. Chris with Onsite helped were he could but he is a small family owned company. One of the reasons I want to get his shop name out there.
Are you selling the old Honda? I could use a parts motor.
Yes sir, asking $1500
@@Saltyscales What year is it and I'll check on major parts compatibility. Thanks!
2004, I priced them out and they sell from 2k to 3500. The motor actually ran and sounded great. I think there was only 500 original hours. Dang lower until let me down.
@@Saltyscales Sent you an email.
You ready to buy this old girl?
Not to familiar with Suzuki, I'm a Johnson/evinrude myself
I think Evinrude went out of business, didn't they?
@@Saltyscales yea they are no longer making new ones.
I did not know this, I have a 1996 Johnson 40
He broke out the old "I'm done asking now I'm telling bar."
I hate how expensive these outboards are , and it’s like you know inevitably they are a ticking time bomb , they always blow up . All brands ... what the heck ...
They aren't cheap but hey, we have to fish lol.
Get a zuk!!!
That is the way we were leaning.
Repower it with an old school Johnson 2 stroke! Loud but those babies last forever! Lol anyway that 300 suzuki should make that boat fly!
I just want to go fast, Matt, the old Johnson's were bulletproof.
clickbait. nothing but an ad for the boat chandlery
What’s with the entire video being an ad for your buddy’s auto/marine store? Clickbait
It's not an ad at all, we support our local businesses. You'll get over it cup cake.
@@Saltyscales Lol Josh, I’m over it. Just calling it as I see it: I was expecting a full analysis on repair vs buy on your lower unit and not an infomercial . Hey that crew looked like good people running a great store though for sure. You did a great job promoting them. Keep up the fishing content, I do appreciate your channel.
@@pgfisher8652 You know one of the reasons I plugged them so hard? I drove by their store building for a decade and never knew they were there. Even if this video helps get 20 new people in their store, that is 20 new potential customers that can help keep their doors open.
