What else can I help you with?
Do all newly made boats have an outboard motor?
The short answer is no. Boats are made with outboard, inboard-outboard, a hybrid using an inboard engine driving a stern mounted shaft that looks like the lower end of an outboard. Others use inboard engines, typically larger cruiser and specialty ski boats. Personal watercraft use a inboard engine powering a water jet pump. This jet drive system is also used in some boats. Most smaller boats are powered by outboards. New large outboards up to 400HP permit larger boats some over 30 ft long to be outboard powered. Most mid-size boats from 18-30 feet are powered by inboard-outboard systems to take advantage of larger automotive engines.
What is the difference between inboard and outboard in powerboat racing?
Inboard means that the engine is fixed inside the bottom of the boat. Outboard means the engine is fixed outside the boat, usually clamped to the stern, and can be tilted up in very shallow water, or removed from the boat when not in use for security.
Can you use a car 305 engine in a boat?
Yes, you can use a 305 engine on some boats however, you need to provide more info on the type of boat. Putting the engine on an inboard/outboard, style boat would not be difficult at all, as long as you already have a good lower unit, same goes for an inboard. An outboard, on the other hand will be difficult, if its even possible to run a horizontal engine vertically.
How do you use the word ailerons in a sentence?
The pilot adjusted the ailerons to bank the airplane to the left during the turn.
What year is this mercury outboard motor serial number 2487101?
To find the year model of a Mercury outboard, you need to know two things, the serial number, and the horsepower rating.

Can you use 4 stroke inboard oil in your 4 stroke outboard?
Sure! You can also use 4 stroke automotive oil that meets the API specification your motor needs, for a heck of a lot less money.
Can you make an outboard 125 force into an inboard?
The answer is yes. the only catch is that you will need to find a second hand Force L-drive. The L-drive was an attempt from Mercury to use a force outboard motor as an inboard. Sadly they never got rid of the bugs of the u-joint system and scraped the idea three years later. They where only made from 90 to 93'. They use the power-head and lower unit from an outboard, but with a special U- joint system in the middle. I know this because I own a Bayliner Capri from 1991 with such a drive and I use Force outboard parts for spairs. If you can find such an L-drive then you could use your outboard, but hard to find. Try old Maxum or Bayliners from the early 90's. It might be easy (and cheaper) to find a complete L-drive boat with a broken powerhead then just the parts.
What are the advantages of using a boat with an outboard motor for recreational activities on the water?
Using a boat with an outboard motor for recreational activities on the water offers several advantages. Outboard motors are portable, easy to maintain, and provide good maneuverability. They are also efficient in terms of fuel consumption and can be easily tilted out of the water when not in use, reducing the risk of corrosion. Additionally, outboard motors are typically less expensive than inboard motors, making them a cost-effective option for recreational boating.
What should you do if your inboard outboard boat runs aground?
If your inboard-outboard boat runs aground, first ensure everyone on board is safe and assess the situation for any damage. Shift weight to the stern to help lift the bow and reduce draft, then try to power off the grounding gently if conditions allow. If that doesn't work, use anchors or a paddle to help maneuver the boat, or wait for the tide to rise if you're in a tidal area. If you're unable to free the boat, consider calling for assistance.
Use vegetable oil in 2 stroke outboard?
No, not a good idea to use vegetable oil. Use a TC-W3 rated, 2 stroke outboard oil blended for outboard use.
Is a PWC considered a boat?
Yes, a Personal Watercraft (PWC), such as a Jet Ski, is considered a type of boat. PWCs are designed for recreational use on water and are typically powered by an inboard engine and propelled by a jet of water. While they differ from traditional boats in terms of design and operation, they still fall under the category of watercraft.
What is the primary force that causes an airplane to turn?
The primary force that causes an airplane to turn is the use of ailerons on the wings. By deflecting the ailerons, the pilot can create a difference in lift between the wings, resulting in a turning motion.
