Some people say that if you are using a modern synthetic you can go to 40:1. If it were mine, I'd start with 24:1 and see how much it smokes. Disclaimer: This response should be considered by the questioner with a full understanding that I don't know what I am talking about. . 24 to 1 was a standard mix back in that day. Also pretty standard was "a half pint to a gallon" Gotta wonder when the last time that outboard

You end up choking on your own heavy blue exhaust smoke. The 3hp motor with the large fan type thrust propeller was pretty slow. Diesel fumes on a boat can be brutal, too. I remember the only time I got ill on a boat was in Jax while on a large, diesel powered fishing "party boat," and the fumes from the following wind kept blowing back onto the paying passengers outside the cabin. The smell was awful and so was the effect. Blech! No diesel fumes ever on that twin diesel powered trawler you have?Good one!--Freedom Isn't Free!
