12" merc champ mid wanted ;) :cool:


LOL who ever would have one of those :p...honestly though, 16" would be killer, get it cut.


i know it makes no sence but the hood came with a merc adapter,for a 12",i wish it was for a 15" that would be ideal i think on my valero , merc trim is faster and in the boat, so its less weight on the transom, it would be a neat mod, imo. nothing wrong with the yami trim, but everyone has it, biggest problem with the 12" is the champ mid is worth more than my whole boat/motor,.....and then the gear case :? id need an addapter to run a yami case or a million dollars for a merc case every year. :lol:

It has a crack in it from prop to nosecone. That's probably what happened at Bogbash.... Haven't taken it off yet to look at it, don't know how bad it is.

It was what I originally suspected, but the second time I started the motor after I broke down it sounded like there was no compression on a few cylinders. When I pulled the plugs, they all look good. I need to go deeper, but that lower is definately done.
