Mercury/Tohatsu 6HP 4 Stroke Range and MPG Test

Testing a Mercury/Tohatsu (same motor) 6HP 4 stroke outboard Jon Boat motor on a Coleman Crawdad 12’ flat bottom Jon Boat. Can a Jon Boat go farther on a gallon of gas than a Nissan pickup?

I strive to make high quality jon boat, small outboard, and small stream fishing vids.

We will do a gas mileage and range test on Mercury/Tohatsu 6HP outboard jon boat motor to see how far we can go on a tank of gas and get this Mercury outboard’s MPG.

Will it be better than my Frontier Pickup Truck? Can a Jon Boat go farther on a gallon of gas than a Nissan pickup? Watch to see!
