I know that some will laugh at this, but believe me, I am serious about doing the following:
Can anyone tell me the best way to get more hp/performance out of this little motor? Going with something larger or heavier just isn't an option because of the size of my boat (18 ft. modified canoe) and the restrictions on some of the lakes that I frequent.
I've already done the obvious (bigger jet and installing a stabilizing fin on the lower unit), and overall the boat performs flawlessly with the exception of the fact that I'm tired of getting passed by the typical jonboats with their 9.9s and 15s!
