Only you buy boats on a salesman's word and look what that got you. The reason they are popular for pontoon boats is that they can move a heavier load, at slow speed, more efficiently.

They probably had a Bigfoot laying around at the dealership and sold it to the first dip**** to walk in. That salesman probably got a nice commission for unloading that from their inventory. "Jorge" Boy...y'all are getting more ditzy by the day. The boat manufacturer offered the 60 Big foot as an upgrade from the base 40 hp outboard. Y'all should keep your pie hole shut unless you know what you're blathering about. Jorge does know what he is talking about. You probably got an unbelievable deal to take that mistake off Legends hands. |

Interesting that some newbie asks a reasonable question here and a couple of the reigning assholes, of which "Alex" is a ranking member, immediately turn it into trash. -- *Lock Trump Up!* Oh goodie. Now I get to name you as a thread trasher next time you step on a thread with your political bull**** |

Y'all should keep your pie hole shut unless you know what you're blathering about. A 60 hp would be an upgrade if in a standard motor. The Big Foot and my Yamaha T-8 high thrust are for displacement hulls. My T-8 has the lower end of a 25 horse for the strength and a lower gear ratio, and a larger propeller. Moves lots of water, but at a slower speed. Would figure the same for the Big Foot. Designed for displacement hulls. My T-8 has a 11.75†diameter 5 pitch propeller as opposed to a standard 8 hp of 8.5†and 9.75 pitch. Will move my boat a max of about 6 mph, which is hull speed, and will troll at less than 1 mph at idle. When I used my Mariner 15hp 2 stroke as a kicker, I could get about 4 mph max and a lot of churned up water. Would troll, but at a higher rpm. |
