Outboard motor swap. 2 stroke to 4 stroke. Getting the boat ready for the 2023 season.

This boat came to me last fall with the original 85hp force down on compression on one cylinder. After stripping the force to assess the damage, it will need a full rebuild to include boring and new pistons. I plan to rebuild it over the next year, but in the meantime we'll install this Yamaha F60 to get us through the summer. I don't think we'll get much more than 30 mph out of it, but should still be enough to get around the lake and pull a tube.
