Ce que couvre cette vidéo

The Nissan Marine 5HP two-stroke outboard replaces the ePropulsion electric motor on Mirage for a speed and performance test run from an anchorage through a port to a check-out station.0:29 Vlad starts the engine on roughly the third attempt — a cold-start quirk he attributes to the motor being new.0:59 The two-stroke produces noticeable gasoline smell, light oil smoke on cold start, and significant noise compared to the electric unit.2:17 Its key advantage: it weighs 19 kilograms, lighter than the ePropulsion it replaces.2:39 The test route involves current and wind, giving real-world conditions for the comparison.0:39 The video breaks off before detailed speed figures or a formal performance verdict are given, but Vlad's immediate takeaway is that speed is the primary gain over the electric motor.
