Still not taken my honwave out. Hope to get it out Monday. Just unsure where from yet. Running a 3m air deck with a 5hp long shaft outboard so not sure how that will go.
@boatingsibbingandwandering3262Күн бұрын
It should be short shaft outboard on that boat. But certainly see how it goes with the long shaft. with a 5hp and I assume 1 person it should get on the plane. If you have 2 people I think it might struggle but ok for displacement speeds

@boatingsibbingandwandering326220 күн бұрын
Hello and sorry for your issue. I am afraid that I am not a Lan Rover expert but just someone who sorted this particular issue. However a lot of fault codes like you are getting can also be linked to low fuel pressure on the fuel rail. All this generally needs is replacement fuel filter/filters. Also it might be useful for you to buy the Land Rover plug in fault finding tool (google will find a few) so you start to understand the issues. In any event go back to the garage that did the work also and complain

Hi, thanks for the video. I have a problem with water intrusion with this model. Water appears even on flat days so it's not coming in over the tubes or transom. When accelerating and the bow of the boat starts to lift, all the water suddenly appears at the back of the boat. There are no signs of any damage, the boat is brand new. I had the same problem with the T38 and my dealer took the boat back under guarantee and marking the boat as "faulty". Now it's happening again with the T35 alu and the dealer doesn't believe that there can be the same problem again on a brand new boat so I'm stuck. Any advice? Thanks

Why do you sit like that? Aerodynamics? Mine sometimes does 26 km/h, on rough sea 18-22. With 6 hp my problem is getting on plane. Also for some reason my prop ventilates with increasing the trim. At trim 0 it would ventilate the least, but be the slowest as the prop axis literally points at the bottom of the boat upwards... Maybe I'll be getting trim flaps with gas springs to help with getting on plane and allow better trim angle. For Suzuki DF-6 the horisontal prop angle is at the middle trim setting and with some bow rise it would and should be 4th trim hole for max speed and efficiency. - absolutely impossible without some kind of leveling aid.

Yes always tow with engine on. It is a 15 hp 2 stroke so not to heavy. I also wedge a piece of wood tied on with bungee and jam it in position to limit the bounce. Depending on your engine this piece of wood can be easy of difficult to keep in position. They are very strong transomes on the Honwaves. If you were going to tow a very long way you could take the engine off and pop it in the boot of the car. You do get petrol smells doing this however
