Thread: Chinese outboards!

I have one of the little weed wacker Chinese motors on my duck skiff. I've had it about 3yrs and it has been pretty reliable, it did get a crack in the fuel line but about a dollars worth of fuel line at the hardware store get it back in shape. I run it quite a bit as our season is 107 days and I'm retired.



I had a 3hp Evenrude/Johnson water cooled two cylinder on it but it was too much motor. The 3hp works very well on my square stern canoe for freighting large numbers of decoys through a little bit of water.

My old hunting partner has a little 2hp Honda on his 14 foot skiff that moves it along very nicely, leaves my rig in the dust so to speak.
