Backcountry Pilot

Well, my 175 has 50 more horsepower than the 0360, so even with more engine weight and 11# of lead in the tail it is a great performer. It easily trims to cruise straight and level so I don't know what that's all about. It is on Aqua 2400's which float it like a boss. The 0470 runs a lot smoother than the 0360 in my experience. Not a mechanic, just a bush pilot from the 60's and 70's.
