Re: Planing with a 6HP...what are my options?
i have a little 2.4m airdeck with a 5hp 2 stroke and had the same issue, either bow up and slow or flat out and planing. i wanted to have a bit of help getting on the plane easier so made some trim tabs... easy to make and worked a treat, 2 up i can plane easily and with just me she pops up and flie...

Re: What to look for when buying 2-stroke outboard?
as long as it has good compression, spark, fuel and water flow not much to go wrong. solid, light weight by about 10kg and comparatively more grunt than the a 4 stroke 8hp. only down side is slightly more noise and 15% more fuel used but really in a full day of boating you wont care. i'd have a stro...

Re: Fixed Trim Tabs (not doel fins or foils)
Just on the off chance anyone is interested.... the trim tabs WORK!!! the 2.4m sib now has far less of a hump to climb over to get on the plane, planes at lower speeds and zero porpoising which it did allot of before... when the sib is rolled up and deflated the fold up out of the way no problem. we...
