Weed Eater Mods

[thuffner3]

Hello all,
New posting here.
I have a Toro 25cc edge trimmer, my brother is using as his boat motor.
Albeit, it is rather under powered for a seven foot scale mahogony runabout.
Can the same mods for a Homie be used on the Toro?
Or are there links or site dealing with Toro mods.
Or would we be better off considering the small expense, to just purchase a Homie?

TIA
Neil

For a seven foot boat, I would reccommend 2 homies that have been modded.
That or drop the $$ for a QuickDraw. If you are not worried about having any kind of speed, one modded homie will do.

Hope this helps!

The boat is only configured for one engine. And at this time Fritz is using the Toro motor. Because of our design for the electric start, The Toro rendered itself quite easily adaptable because of it start design. Our electric start mounts directly to the back of it. Here's a shot of the configuration.

Thats definitly a sexy boat, but i still reccommend a ton of power for anything that big... Maybe if you have the $$ you should take a look at the engines that www.mhzusa.com has...

Oh Yeh, very nice engines indeed, and with a mtching price tag to boot.
I'm thinking maybe wonderland is just around the corner.

THanks for the wonderful wish site though
