When we bought our thirteen-foot Whaler the Mercury 30 HP engine had two major problems. First, the hydraulic trim tilt pump was dead. Second, (and more importantly) it was not powerful enough to ski/ wakeboard behind. We found a solution when our friend "crazy Dave" offered to sell us his sinking dinghy with an E-Tec 50hp on the back.
Not sure what we are going to do with the half drowned dinghy, but we found a new home for the engine!
This is the final stage of a two-day yard project. Day one" trailer the old dinghy out and remove the engine and steering / throttle system. Easier said than done as it took a forklift to yank the engine off. Day two, splash the sinking dinghy and trailer the Whaler out. Remove the 30 HP from the whaler, retrofit the 50 HP onto the whaler. Uuuugh. Knew it was going to be tough and dirty but happy it's done.
Dirty hands.
Happy Girl.
