  • Starting outboard motor

    Had a person at work ask me how fast would he haft to go to start his motor if he tried to pull it with another boat, At first i gave him a look like a deer in headlights, Then i ask if he was kidding and he said no that he thought he could do it, I told him when he does try it to let me know cause i really want to see this.Course while i am having a cold one and far away from him.

    I call BS -- It's not like popping the clutch on a ford. Let us know Bryan.

      Can't be done-the drag coefficient of the prop in the water is not enough to cause the shaft to spin-if it does spin, it would not be enough to "start" the motor. It aint a clutch car or truck. Try an auto transmissioned car-good luck push starting it.

      WTH would you even consider that anyway?
      "Hey Hillary, regarding the Benghazi Attack on 9/11-we'll just blame it on that movie, not my total lack of security. By the way, what's so significant about 9/11 anyway-was that a date my buddy Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground blew up a government building?" asked Obama to Hillary. BEAUTIFY AMERICA, RUN OVER A LIBERAL, THEN BACK UP AND SEE IF HE'S DEAD.

          Don't think it can be done. Have to overcome the compression to turn the motor over, more than once...
