4hp Mariner on 16' Jon boat

Testing my 4hp mariner/yamaha motor on the Christiana River. I wasn't flying, but it was awesome to see what this little guy can do.

I was worried if a new 30hp 4 stroke would push my 16 V Hull. Not now.🤣 Thanks.

LOL. FYI - the 16' boat the 4hp was pushing was a Polar Kraft riveted 1648 jon boat, very lightweight.

Pvc boat with long shaft motor, Your transcom is too low

[@igotdeelz]

Boat was an aluminum 1648 polarkraft with 15" transom, and this motor was a shortshaft.

[@keithsk-gaming9820]

I have an older model of the motor!

[@igotdeelz]

I actually sold the motor not long after posting the video, but it was an awesome motor.

[@thetexanist]
