Fantastic video, been eagerly waiting a long time for this. Great work! Can I suggest you put Suzuki DF60a in the title and add some tags so it shows up better on the searches? Many thanks for taking time and trouble to document the build!

@boatman9564 Жыл бұрын

Very useful feedback. Thanks a lot for watching and for your support - title and tags updated!

@@boatman9564 fyi I had mine remapped by Martin Rossiter of West Wales Tuning. Very happy with the results. In fact JB Mechanical regularly gets these to 80hp on regular unleaded but they are in Aus, not UK.

Good to know. I think this 3cyl engine is used up to 70hp by Suzuki. If there’s no variation in mechanical parts up to that HP level then then that definitely sounds like it’s worth investigating.

Thanks for the video. Can you give us a rough idea of how many hours and how much $ for the rebuild?

Great video been waiting for this one to come out ….. is there much difference between the 50 and 60 hp outboards ? I have a 50 now and been thinking of going to the 60 ?

@boatman9564 Жыл бұрын

It’s definitely quicker. Top speed I had from the 50 was 25knts. 60 has given we 30knts however I think I’ll get more out of it once re-propped. 60 is definitely a better match for my 4.8m than the 50.

Did you reused the old bolts?

@boatman9564 Жыл бұрын

Most of them, yes. There are a few you have to replace as they’re single use.
