Greetings,

I'm looking for feedback on using a Jabriu 2200cc (85hp) on the Mark111 x.

Its time to get serious about picking an engine and I know its designed for
the Rotax but I'm looking at all options.

Also, how good is the Rotax 912 S 100HP unit??

Ease of install, reliability, positives, negatives on both would be great
info.

I want to be able to carry up to 230lb passengers and possibly put it on
floats.

Thanks for your feedback.

FrankD

Frank,
If you plan on floats you'll want the 912, more thrust due to the bigger
slower prop.
Plenty of 912Ss on Mk-3s with happy owners, but the 912UL is also a crowd
pleaser.
The newer Jab 2200 perform fine on the Mk-3 with 62 and 64 inch props but
the Rotax swinging 68 - 72 inch blades will give a good bit more take off
and climb performance.

Floats?? No doubt, use the 912S. Check out www.trentonflyers.com then
click on "members" then "Robert Broadwell" if you want to see a nice MkIII with
912S. Includes a very good write=up.
