Title: motor swap for 78 170 with twinn 55's
Post by: Fins in the Bin on December 14, 2023, 08:40:11 PM

I finished my motor swap from the original twin 55's to a new single 4 stroke 70HP Yamaha and what a difference in fuel efficiency. I'm doing 60-80 mile trips chasing tuna now on the right days while fishing by myself.

nice! Hows the cruise speed and do you know what prop you're running?
