It's a little hard to get started sometimes, but once it fires up it does pretty good for an O-320.

Rick,
Excellent video! How do ya' drive while filming that stuff?
I think your boat is probably the best performing 4 cyl I've ever seen to do that kinda stuff!

Thanks basketcase, I'm real happy with the way my new motor runs. Like most airboats out there though, you can stick it pretty easy though if you're not watching what you're running and stopping on.


My little digital camera makes the filming pretty easy. Just turn it on, hold it up in front of you, and take off.

Nice video Rick.
Your boat runs dry so easy, I'm starting to wonder if you really need to put the drain plug in before you ride.

Like most of us I've watched this video several times .....
what impresses me is how this little boat takes off when it hits open water, and
how much Rick is able to throttle back and still stay on plane.
It sure makes a case for those 0-320's on a light hull. Nice.

That was a 72" Sensenich narrow blade (carbon fiber). If I remember right, I had it set on the second mark & it turned around 2900 rpms with that "H" model 160. That was a fun little boat.
