8-15
Yes, but not very fast.
You will notice on the throttle handle that there are three positions on the legend. "Really Slow", "Start" and "Slow".
A 3.5hp outboard will give you 8mph tops, which would be a normal walk to a slow jog.
It depends on the size craft it is pushing. A 5hp outboard should run fast enough to plane out say a 10 to 12ft. aluminum boat with one man aboard.
a 75 hp merc goes 19 mph
I have a 14/36 flat boat with a 15 and it goes 26mph with only me and minimal gear.
What is the weight of a 1966 45 hp mercury outboard motor
how do you adjust timing on a 50 hp 1985 Yamaha outboard motor
A 6 hp outboard will go about fast enough to plane a 10 ft. aluminum boat, with one passenger aboard.
5mph or less
Speed is dependant on a number of factors. Most importantly the size, type and weight of the boat that it is on and the number of people on board. A 50 HP outboard will push a small aluminum fishing boat a lot fast than it will a 20 ft fiberglass boat. I have a 50 HP 2 stroke that will push a 16 foot aluminum boat 35 MPH.
The speed of a 115 hp outboard motor can vary based on several factors, including the weight of the boat, its design, and water conditions. Generally, a boat powered by a 115 hp outboard can achieve speeds ranging from 30 to 45 miles per hour. Lighter, more aerodynamic boats may reach the upper end of this range, while heavier boats will likely be slower.
