Default CAUTION: Metal boat stuff advice sought

And, maybe, get a smaller motor. My 9.9 Yamaha is 95 pounds dry.

But for the adaptation of an air cooled engine to liquid cooling -
and installing it in a 12 foot boat???
on a tight budget?


I'd have to say the years scheming about it could have been better used
_trying_ it.

OR?

A very good troll....

Richard,


I've been busy with other more important things. And I've been using
the boat but my wrist pain has finally gotten to the point that I need
to do something.

Take Tylenol and Naproxin together. They work symbiotically and it
should help at least some.

As for the boat, from what I saw of the floating lawn mower, a healthy
trolling motor could probably give it a good run for the money and effort.

Or perhaps a Honda 2 HP outboard? Pricy new, but can occassionally be
found used. 29 pounds. I've been saving up to buy one for my dinghy.
