Default Prather 46" Fun Cruiser

I just got a Prather Fun Cruiser with an upgraded Octura 2.70 from the 2.65 prop and a upgraded carb. Its the 30cc Prather motor. Its ready for squirrel waterskiing in Lake Mead! I was wondering what my expectations might be? I would appreciate any insight. Thank you.

Based on that info you'll probably be hitting the 30-35mph range on smooth open water. The Fun Cruiser handles very nicely even in choppy water. If your engine is all dialed-in and working well I would budget on 20-25 minutes of runtime, at that point bring it back to shore for refueling or you're gonna have to go out after it.
Check the sparkplug and bring a spare.

Is the motor the Prather modified Homelite 30cc?

Make sure everything is tight, mix up the fuel and have fun. Replacement squirrels also recommended.
