Hey guys. I have a 14' tinny with a 20 yammie FS tiller that I built a casting deck in. It has the two seats across and the two corner seats in the stern. The deck is made from 3/4 plywood and goes from the rearmost bench seat to the stem. It's a full 8' long and like 5' wide at the widest part. It also has a 3/4 ply sub floor in between the two benches. There's a battery in the front with trolling motor. Battery in the rear along with the gas can. With just me in it it gets up on plane no sweat. Me and my 7 and 5 year old boys also gets on plane. But myself and another adult it won't get on plane. I installed a stingray hydrofoil and makes no difference. This motor is fairly new and I would expect it to be able to get up as is with two adults. My uncle has a 14' with a 15 merc and with three lard arses and all gear plus cooler live well goes no problem. When my motor is pushing with two guys it seems to be running at maybe half rpm and wants to pull the tiller away from me to turn right when the steering damper is loose. Any suggestions. Maybe a different prop? It is rated for a 35hp but I would have thought a 20hp would suffice.

If you pass over the age of 90 it shouldn't be called dieing...it should be called winning the game.

As a guy who works in the field I feel the need to chime in here. In a nutshell, Older cities have some combined storm/sanitary sewers. This meaning that rain/melt water from your weeping tiles is drained into the sanitary sewer along with some down spouts. This was the cheapest solution back in the day before environmental laws. They only needed one set of pipes in the ground to take both systems away. And It was designed for the treatment plants to go in by-pass mode during heavy storm conditions. Treating sanitary sewer takes time and you can't effectively treat it at a high rate of flow. Too much volume and flow will disturb the media beds and the live organic treatment process. A while back they went to two separate systems and nowadays have three (sanitary, storm, and flood drain control). But the old systems are still combined and even the new bigger plants still can't handle extreme flood conditions. One solution is to expand the current plants to be so robust to handle the flow but that would not be practical nor economical at the costs in the millions+++ Don't think this happens only in the river, it happens in every major city. Dilution is the solution to the pollution. -
Kinda reminds me of Frankie McDonald there Brian....

No if those were Blackhorse beer cans then, and only then, would you have a Newfie tape measure.
