" For Sale" 87 Playmate with 150XR2

Just wondering why you felt it necessary to put a V6 engine on such a small boat. Looks rather dangerous...
 
I don't know, I thought it was sized perfect :thumb:!!

Through horse trading I got the motor. With no stand, I set it on the jack plate. Looked unsafe sitting there so threw a couple bolts in. With it bolted on for safety, it was only a couple other things to see how it ran. Once I ran it, it was addictive. Totally impractical but fun as hell and got looks EVERYWHERE! Even had a Ohio DNR officer ask for a ride :D


Boat is SOLD!
 
Hey YF88, Wasn't the v-6 made for the small boat? I thought it looked good back there. Nobody can see the one in mine cause its under the hatch. Got me thinkin about a couple more cylinders though. Think the boat can handle it, what do you think?
