Just got the mod yamaha 50 bigbore prototype finished. had a good run on wed until i saw that the epoxy wont last and i need a welding job. hopefuly i can get it all done tomorow so i can race on sunday in taunton. the motor looks like it should have enough power once everything get set right. the 18 wasnt enough will try the 21 tomorow

what props do you use? and what gearing? My brother has a 90 on a 250lb V (a Voodoo) and proping is really holding us back. The only thing we could find that worked is a 24p Yamaha chopper from a V6! It has waay to much diameter but this size engine is very difficult to fit props to.

i usualy use through hub cleavers in the 10.5*18-21 range but have a 12*23 and 14* 25 the gearing is 1.71. i am working on a 15inch 90 yamaha with a 1.71 ratio which should be completed soon
