- 1971 13 ft Boston Whaler Restoration | Installing a 30 HP Suzuki Outboard with Riser Brackets
Welcome back to our Boston Whaler restoration series! In this video, we’re diving into the exciting and detailed process of installing a 30 HP Suzuki outboard motor on our classic 1971 13 ft Boston Whaler.
What You'll See:
Motor Installation: Watch as we tackle the challenge of mounting a 30 HP Suzuki outboard with a 20-inch shaft on a 15-inch transom. We use angle riser brackets to ensure the cavitation plate is level with the bottom of the boat.
Cable Setup: Follow along as we install the shifter and throttle cables. The 10 ft cables were the perfect fit for this setup!
Hoist System: To lift the motor safely, we installed an overhead trolley hoist using a VEVOR electric winch. This setup made the heavy lifting a breeze.

Such a fun project, looks great, would love a simple boat like that!
it is so much fun. wait till you see the next episode
Your ceiling joists are earning their keep. Looks good; sounds great.
that trolly lift system was a life saver. it would have been a struggle without it.
Nice work, seeing it in person is always the best.
thanks buddy
I have the same hoist , I just used it last weekend to remove an old 200 Suzuki off a beat up old bow rider. Now I have to figure out what to do with the motor lol
Great work!!
Where did you order the motor from?
Did you end up shimming the motor? I'm looking to use your same setup on a '68 13 Sport
yes i used 2 stainless steel washers on the top bolts nothing on the bottom bolts the angle works out that way and the insides of mounts on the motor are flush with the brackets
Should’ve got a 15” shaft 25hp
no no no if you use a 15 shaft the telflex steering smashes into the curve of the transom. no good
@@StoneBrokeAdventureThats why you use a standoff bracket for the cable
@cutsilver3650 i'm curious why you recommend the 15'' 25hp. I'm repowering a '69 BW 13 and am on the fence on raising the transom.
