I am new to boating and am trying to add a small 6 hp outboard to my
fishing boat for trolling. Can I simply move my existing 30hp over 6
inches to make room on the transome ? or is it crutial that this main
motor be centered ?

Thanks

You should try it, oft the simplest solution does turn out to be
the best & given it will cost you nothing; try it first & see.


Ms. Smith is big on suggesting how others should waste their time.



Given your main motor is 30Hp I'm guessing the boat isn't too big
(no offense intended) & in smaller boats having the OB offset while
not exactly common is still seen regularly.


It is? Damn. I'm 60 and have been messing around with boats for more
than 50 years, and I've never seen the main outboard "offset" on a
smaller boat. Perhaps it is peculiar to Australia, where everything is a
bit peculiar.


You're a liar you've never owned a boat & never will & every time you
pretend to know about boats you come unstuck as all liars do.



Mainly used by the real boaters, like the pro fishermen who use
dories for a living. They're not too concerned with "convention" at
the marinas, just outcomes:-)


Bullship.


The Whaler catamaran brands used to be sold with a single offset OB.



Whaler catamaran brands? What brands were those?

Here's one link;

you lying idiot!!! These were well known years agao & performed
surprisingly well.

Lots of boats have the prop offset for good reasons & so do a few
smaller OB powered boats, but you would know any of that not being a
boater:-)

Please Krause try to stick to the OT political posts spruiking your
union, because you're positively dangerous when you pretend to be a
boater, just because the experienced boaters here know you're lying &
just giggle, it doesn't mean everyone does. Leave the boating answers to
parody Krause hey??? They're much more accurate than any lie you've ever
posted & oft really funny:-)


Karen Smith, inventor of the imaginary "Taipan" line of diesel
outboards, in an imaginary factory, via an imaginary business plan, and
and sold on eBay via an imaginary marketing program that sidesteps
dealers and distributors. And no one in Australia who deals in diesel
outboards knows of Karen Smith and her Taipan diesel outboard.



Still stalking after all these years:-) Jealous, non boating, cowardly,
dickless, sick old man.

& the Krause lie for the day is??........

For years this lying simpleton union organiser has denigrated the
US military in all ways.

He especially denigrates anyone who was in Vietnam because after
all "he" was against that war too.

It doesn't seem to occur to him that it's the same brave people he
denigrates that allow the likes of him to lie & BS their useless way
through life. The very same military that has prevented a repeat of 911
the worst atrocity in history??

Anyway this idiot as usual creates a lie so he can claim to have a
legitimate knowledge, he creates lies about boats he doesn't own, posts
false pics, even a jetski at one stage so he could pollute that NG for a
while.

For me it's his Vietnam lie that is especially offensive to all who
served & risked "their" lives to protect cowardly him & to those that
did much more than just risk their lives. A lowlife lying grub is our
Krause.


It's so much fun keeping pea-sized, right-wing "brains" spinning. You're
being far to analytical here, John. Just to make your day, not only was
I a civilian employee in SE Asia, it was in Vietnam, it was during the
war against Vietnam, I did see some horrific sights and I was working at
the time for a U.S. general. Is that straightforward enough for you,
John, or is your amoeba still chasing your synapse?
