Nog een:

Dit is veronderstel om in n sirkel te wees..seker jy sal n plan kan maak

 

[Tammo Vink]

Dankie thika

 

[HelloC]

Hi Almal,

Dink julle 2 x 70hp (2008) Suzuki 4 strokes sal te lig wees vir my boot ? Die ander opsie is 2 x 90 HP Mercury's (2006) of dalk weer 2 x 85 Yamaha's. My 85's (1984 Modelle)het so baie corrosion dat ek sal moet kyk om hulle te replace bw_l_)

Hello C

Ek dink die 70 hp fourstrokes sal leke werk as jy nie gaan surflunch nie maar ek verkeerd wees my Ace Cat 555 het 2x 85hp yamaha's en ek het geen probleem met krag nie maar sal baie graag fourstrokes wil opait of optimax maar dis my opienie almal se smaak verskil mos maar

 

[thika]

Twee Yammie 70 fours strokes?

Serious goeie economy

maar, 2x90 enige perde is wat daai boot gaan maak hop!

Suzuki 40hp = 943cc engine Displacement

Yamaha 70hp = 966cc engine Displacement

Sal eerder gaan vir 2x 90's ( Suzuki or Honda)

Aan die ander kant weer is daar baie goeie deals op 85 Yammies , jy kan 2 van hulle optel onder R40k vir 'n stel

 

[HelloC]

Hi Almal,

Tammo, Thika en BFC - Dankie vir die advies, ek sal dan kyk na 85's of 90's - ek ken net nie Mercury nie, so ek is half huiwerig oor hulle...maar hulle lyk baie goed

 

[HelloC]

Die 70 Suzuki's, en die 90 merc's en die 85's is verkoop GRRRR......ag wat dalk kry ek n goeie stel iewers, my 85's loop darem nog

 

[thika]

Probeer Atlantic Suzuki en kyk of jy n stel nuwe DF motors kan kry...hulle word uitgephase deur die nuwe DFA's

Ek is nie seker of dit vir die 90's ook geld nie, maar so n paar weke terug kon ek splinternuwe DF115's kry vir omtrent R30 000.00 goedkoper

 

[thika]

Here you go Tammo...

@Fishfun or someone that can help??
What an awesome awesome boat, good one. I rode on a mate's a number of years ago and loved it.
I am presently looking at buying that exact same rig for myself, been looking long and hard, 2 questions, if you don't mind.....
Are the 60's good for that size hull, not too heavy?
Can you give me a history of that PARTICULAR hull as I know Acecraft closed doors 1994 but these hulls are newer, through to about 2003, if I am not mistaken, who were they then made by if Acecraft were closed etc etc.
Once again, lovely boat, can't wait to eventually find one in really good nick.
Many thanks.
Deon

Wow BFC, they look awesome, really impressive.
Thank you so much for the explanation, all makes sense now.
Would 2x60 yammies therefore be suitable for a 16ft hull?
I have seen a hull for sale, need to know what size motors to match with her if I get her. I launch through average size surf, Moz etc, sold the jet-ski and going boat route as son has taken it up as well.
Once again, thanx

 

[BFC]

On the 15,6 ft AceCraft I will put nothing else than 2x40hp 2 stroke motors. 150-175kg on the transom and this is more than enough.

2x60's is too heavy/and powerfull but then again in Natal if you cant bolt 2x85 yammies to somethings arse it aint no good
