Welcome as we share with you a one of a kind skiff rebuild on a $500 budget!!

PERFORMANCE / HP specs: 6 hp 4 Stroke: We first tested the skiff with a 6hp which resulted in NOT being able to get on plane w 2 adults. This also was Pre Hull extensions. The only way the boat would get on plane was with Chelsea alone resulting in a 12 mph top speed. 15 hp : Top Speed 25 mph (23 mph w/ 2 adults and gear) A majority of the clips in this video were filmed with the 15 hp outboards. We ran both an older yamaha and Mercury 2 strokes resulting in impressive performance and an extremely shallow draft. This was definitely the PERFECT motor size for this skiff! 20 hp: Top Speed 28 mph (under propped/hitting rev limit) We threw on an older 2 stroke Mariner which was the same weight/motor as a 25 hp, the boat did well with the added weight and performance was definitely better, but.... we didnt run enough prop. 10 pitch prop was used. It could most likely have used a 12 pitch based on revs (measured with Tiny Tach). Overall, great performance , deeper draft, and definitely used more fuel.
