how will a yamaha T50 high thrust perform on a soft zodiac??

[nice-diver]

I have a 15ft soft zodiac
I just got a Yamaha high thrust 50 (2000 T50 carburated) and now that I know what it is, I am wondering how it will push the inflatable.

I am curious on speed and quickness.

thank you

yep, that was in a very short distance

the bow always lifts until it gets on a plane and will stay on plane down to 12 mph or so...with this new motor

we were playing for the camera a little also

Are you rethinking cause your cautious of the bow rise.If your rated for a 40 go to it.
