[QUOTE="muddywaders, post: 338849, member: 13234"] Recently mounted an old johnson 15hp on a 16' welded skiff for the purpose of tuning it before I sell it. Got the motor to run smoothly, however wont get completely on plane.The boat weighs approx. 300 lbs. and is totally flat and 60"wide.The motor revs out with a 10" prop and doesnt seem like its slipping(hub) but wont flatten out even when i tried removing the trim pin and moving fuel tank to bow.When the motor was on a 13' fibreglass it planed two it planed two men easily.The Skiff pops onto plane instantly with a 20hp merc. and feel the johnson15 should plane with just me in the boat.?????
