I haven't seen any posts on improving horse power in a stock outboard. Is it cost prohibitive? You always see people modifying cars,sleds, ATV's,etc, why not outboards. Other than prop changes is there a way to change gears or modify carbs, put in oversize pistons, etc. It might be kind of fun to blow by other 25s with a 25 modified to 40hp.
I might have missed a guess, but here are the ones that I noted:
JerkinLips – March 27th, then April 7th
Brianf. – March 28th
Bobberwatcher – April….
MikeG3Boat – April 10th
SkunkedAgain – early April, then April 21st
Definitely a tough year for guesses, as it seemed to be a no-brainer early ice out. Then it got cold and snowed again.
