Im glad the video helped. If you are looking for used just look carefully at the condition of the tubes. PVC tubes if not taken care of can breakdown in the sun. Although more expensive, Hypalon tubes may have held up better.

Although reliable, Hondas are a pain in the ass to get serviced. Their certified mechanic network is no where near Mercury and Yamaha.

Bought a 2021 and Eastern was horrible to deal with on quality/warranty issues. Horrible. They use butyl tape for bedding deck hardware, set up a dangerous propane system that had to be removed, and too many other things to list. Do not buy new, get one that has been used and proven. Love my boat, have full disdain for Eastern!

I own an Antares 11 and I have some plusses and minuses to report. It is very easy to use and the joystick function makes docking a breeze. It handles very well in calm and rough seas - had it out in 6' swell and it was fine. Great speed with twin merc 300's. Great vessel for fun on Narragansett Bay environs. That said, there are some real flaws. First and most inmportantly, quality is not like the old Beneteaus. The company moved production to Poland and the quality is shaky. Leaky overhead, misaligned cabinets, A/C works great in cooler weather but completely fails to keep up with hotter temps (we're in RI which isn't exactly 'hot weather'). Even the toilet seat was dielivered in the wrong size. One design flaw is that the helm is very hot in warm weather - zero wind flow and no windows to allow wind flow. BTW - it is not exactly cheap either. Also, Beneteau completely eliminated ANY direct contact and all complaints/concerns must go through the dealer. It is impossible to complain about a bad dealer to Beneteau HQ

That's good to know. You are the first person I have heard from who owns an Antares. Sorry to heat that it's coming up short on quality. I can only speak from my experience but the quality on my 2001 Searay seems to be holding up very well given its age.

this does not boost hp. Adding more fuel will just make the mixture rich so it might have a bit more torque but it will loose peak hp. To get more hp you need to add more fuel and air.

I have just bought a display 8hp Parsun motor. I understand it is a Mercury/Tohatsu clone. I plan on doing this exact same conversion, using an inexpensive generic 9.8hp carb. Can you please elaborate on what was misaligned so that the choke was jammed?
@vickz2985
@vickz2985 3 ай бұрын
Hi man I just wanted to tell you that I made the same mistake a few yeard ago by getting a parsun, it is cheap chinese crap and it will only be problems for you I would just recommend to sell it now when it has more value and get either a new or second hand engine of companies which are more established in the boat industry. I strongly recommend any engine from Yamaha or Honda but anything other like suzuki and or even murcury ( tohatsu ) will be better than a parsun : ) let me know how you work it out and if you have any more questions please ask me !

The performance shown is I believe for v drives . What improvement does the stern drive make ?
@CruisingCalypso
@CruisingCalypso 5 ай бұрын
Great question! Stern drives definitely would see a speed improvement as much as 6-8 knots and a corresponding reduction in fuel burn. Stern drive v. v-drive is always a trade off of performance v. maneuverability and maintenance with the latter being easier and slower.
