Status: offline For the money, you simply can't beat the stock Zenoah 260. Much more powerful, reliable and user friendly than any trimmer engine.
Also, it is a complete bolt in. Not so with trimmer engines, as you have to fabricate your own mounts and exhaust.

Finally, we ran an EV with a stock Homelite 25cc, purchased new from Home Depot. The best we could get was 18 mph.
Same boat, with a stock 260 was 49 mph...

Please see our "Setups" page for the latest info on the EV.

Best price for the Zenoah tends to be from Bruce at Gizmo Motors

Joe, What happened to the Easy Vee pictures page you had on your old website? There must have been a dozen of different E/V's - mine included. I don't have but a couple pics of that boat from 2007. Thanks, Brian
