I swapped my Scarab 2300 for this Savage Lancer 530 - unsuccessful maiden voyage. 

Needs the yamaha like mine does. Good to see a lancer 530 video

Yes you could here the engine rpm drop and then come back on a little. So true re the aluminium hull, bang, bang, bang, bang.

Can you do a video on your budgets for your restorations? I would be interested in that. Cheers

Try changing the fuel filter / fuel water separator

Hi love this ! , so much so I just grabbed one she needs some love and if you would be so kind maybe you could help me out with some pics of the bits I’m missing I would really appreciate it if would be so kind

Is it common practice there to have to go through the mooring field to have to get in and out of the harbor? Here in the US (Long Island, New York) the moorings are off the channel to avoid that sort of thing. Also, that most definitely sounds like water in the fuel to me. Do you have ethanol free fuel there?

Gday mate I have the same boat but the tag on mine says max hp 100. Just curious if yours is different? I’d love to be able to repower with 115hp like yours :)
