Homemade Lawn Mower Boat Engine With Custom Canoe Console
I made a video earlier this summer showing my homemade lawn mower boat engine. Now I made the fully functional canoe console for a school architecture project. The camera I filmed with did not pick up on the motors sound very well when i was showing the throttle. The throttle does work and accelerates the boat nicely. Hope you enjoy!

how did you change gear or was it fixed in all the time
@ampears95 Attaching the prop and finding one that spins the right way and fits good is a very hard task. It was the best thing we could come up with. Let me know how your turns out!
hi i am only a kid and i am putting a 8 hp lawnmower engine on a outboard leg that was a 3.5 hp outboard. i like your design of the steering consol!!!! nice!!!! but the prop that is on it is way to small and you prolly could put a bigger one on to make it go faster!!!!!!!
Good job man! lol Too bad about the prop, but thats an easy fix.
sweet boat man
run it
@jeryl1968 Thank you very much, I always enjoy seeing what I can make. Well if you ever need help, or want to team up, let me know!
i build boats and this is verry well done verry creative nice job looks like it will work well thanks for the video
Nice ,…. I got Smoker Craft alluminum canoe for super low price together with Mariner 1989 2 hp 2 stroke engine …
@jonny24667995 you can use the gears from an old trucks differential to get the 90 degree turn. but there is many other options.
what did you make the shaft with the 90 degree bend from
That was a problem we knew we were going to struggle with so we used an old lower boat leg. (It already came with the 90deg turn in it)
How did you turn the drive for the propeller through 90deg?
How did you turn the drive through 90deg for the propeller?
Yeah.. I guess so. So that’s it, I’m young now but in the future I am CERTAINLY going to America!
The American dream is an idea not my ideas but yours you can take something small and make it gigantic in America. You may aslo get loaded filthy rich doing it. Can you smell the money?!
Yeah, America and it’s American dream. I wish i could actually see what they mean with it. I guess I can, If I try hard enough.
Awsome we are in need of people with said talents come on over you are more than welcome in America, you know the American dream is for everyone and you may just strike it rich my friend.
Nice, when i grow up a bit i may move to the USA and start building stuff, because i love to build things.
lol i usd the B&S on the south canadian river in Oklahoma it works great never had a problem goes up and down stream very well. I have a real outboard though not homemade but definately modified
Considering that its a quiet place and there are no waves, i guess youre right.
I understand, go to yard sales look for small jon boats 10ft or 12 ft. Perfect for the river lake or large ponds. and the motor will push them real well
If you do it in a wider boat, will it give it more control? soz, im only 13, gont get alot of this stuff.
Yeah i need to do another video. This cold weather is no fun, once it passes I will definitely have to get it out on the water.
Hey Its Me, ANDPAQ23. Thanks for the comments on my video. I have seen your video several times already. You did a really nice job too – 5 STARS! I would love to see your machine in action. Any plans to make another video?
