I Have a 1990 Yamaha 90hp on my inflatable, the motor goes well but i want more speed!!!
I have tried many different props, unhooking the rev limiter, loosing as much weight as possible etc.
by my calculations this machine needs approx 115hp but......no more weight.
I was considering matching a yamaha 50hp leg to the 90hp powerhead because it is lighter with a smaller profile in the water.
I realise the gearbox ratios are different and thus i will re-prop etc.
Is anyone out there as crazy as me? Has anyone tried this? Will the 50 water pump provide enough cooling water?
cheers
