Its the correct way to cool a decent sized engine.

It was ok on a skin tank to be fair, and that was on the Thames so its big river stuff. The boat its going in is smaller than the one it came out off, but it will sit deeper in the water so create a bit more resistance I suppose

No lol that’s new, modern stuff. I tried to load it, but too alike texting, so I just txt.

anyway Peter the engine was delivered today, all now on a pallet waiting for me to arrange installation.

the conversion kit to be ordered on  Tuesday, allowing me 2 days to work on the streets again, to get the money lol

Okay 

A update 

then 90hp engine is in the workshop

having a conversion kit from beta fitted to convert from keel cooled to raw water cooled.

the kit has cost £1100.

so not doing my home work on th skin tank size, and not coming on to the forum sooner, or before I bought the engine has cost a lot more money in the long run.

although the engine is in fantastic condition, and will have new parts,

 

but just to say thankyou to peterboat, for the heads up. and forum members for advice.

a lesson to be learnt don’t under estimate the amount of keel tank needed.

 

2 other advice needed on new post lol

 

thankyou all
