Yamaha 70 hp 4 stroke (F70) hole shot - from zero to hero

[@wildncrazyguytv]

Trim it out bro😁

[@harrisonhooper5466]

I have been looking for something to cover the shifting cables, fuel lines, etc that go to the motor. What did you use to cover all of that on this boat? It looks very clean!

[@njfishing1]

Rubber spiral pipe 2” - 4”

[@kencleg7721]

Use a suck vac hose about 1 1/4 dia or 1.5 vacuum hose black in color I found a old kitchen dry vac and cut the hose 6’ worked on mine

[@kencleg7721]

For and average 100 hp or less

[@korndawggy1801]

Need a bigger engine for that size boat. Or you need to go down a pitch or two on your prop. Took forever to get on plane.

[@TheBoneruner]

Agree you need to go down in pitch. This is doing your outboard no favours

[@MonicaHolly143]

19ft need atleast 90hp preferably 115

[@robbyhowell8668]

Honestly for that size boat with a 70 I feel like it did pretty good.. it’s and older boat, it works and it cost Less, win win

[@jcoleburt]

How many OK`s does he say.

[@vinccivincci1835]

What’s the hull size?

[@njfishing1]

Boston whaler 19’

[@vinccivincci1835]

@njfising1 hey brother can you take a look of my post. I posted a 70hp with 16ft hull but it seems like your boat is faster than mine

[@Romany1111]

Mako 19' CPX.

[@edwardabrahamiii3742]

What do you get for top speed??

[@njfishing1]

I Never gone beyond 25 miles an hour

[@edwardabrahamiii3742]

@@njfishing1 it should be able to go faster then 25mph but your boat is heavy

how fast at 4000 rpms on that boat

You made a nice video

[@Dcj01]

Why not the Suzuki 70?

[@njfishing1]

Too heavy for my 16 foot boat. I would go for the cheaper Suzuki (350 pounds) if it is lighter. Yamaha 70 weighs only 250 pounds.

[@deere3321]

@@njfishing1 That's exactly why I bought a Yamaha 70.

[@korndawggy1801]

Why didnt you look up that one instead?

[@bornonthebayou5668]

How much $$

[@njfishing1]

U need motor, digital gauge MFD, throttle and shift cables and installed by dealerships in order to get Warrenty so u will looking at around $10k

[@njfishing1]

Remote control box, and wires

[@tallcanadian]

What was your top speed?

[@njfishing1]

haven't tried it yet. Will try full throttle at 5300 to 6300 RPM soon. follow and subscribe to see when I post it. I am also planning to create a table of RPM/speed(MPH)/GPH (MPG) gas usage or mile per gallon. Recently I tried 4500 RPM with 20 miles an hour on my Wellcraft 165 airslot fiberglass boat with just myself and some fishing gears.

[@orlandoduran7740]

that boat needs a 115, my 17 ft center console does 35 mph wide open with a 90 yamaha

[@ryderschaefer3906]

I got a 16ft mirrocraft with a 2019 Yamaha 60 and it does 39 wide open

[@terrorofdemons1168]

2 stroke way better

[@gregdonato8284]

you should have a 150 instead of that 70

[@bretswanson3016]

Cool Duck bull, that boat was struggling . A little more hp would have saved you fuel. IMO

[@njfishing1]

Yes correct.

[@njfishing1]

Yes

[@njfishing1]

Yes agree

[@videomaker8207]

This boat is rated to a 115, they aren’t built to hold big engines, only little boats suited for estuarine and bay fishing, not for the ocean
