On I Wanda we have a 10.6 AB with a 15 Yamaha. We do not find the 15. Adequate for 4 persons. However, previously we had a 18 tohatsu. You would not believe the change 3 more hp did. We could plane with 5 pob. The 10.6 is a double bottom rib.

Hi

As we said we have a 9 Foot AB Light, which is fiberglass not aluminium. Before we had the 8 which has smaller tubes, which gave a rough unstable ride.

Has any one used the wings that are bolted on the shaft of a outboard? Are they worth it?

Regards

Yes, we have the wing that bolts on the skeg and envelops the prop. Helps some with getting on a plane, but great to protect the prop from rocks. Have had mine since 1996 and would not be without it.
