The boat will not take the added thrust. It bends now with 5hp. The
added hp for $60 is nice, but you'll never use more than 3/4 throttle.

10' er is a dry ride , Bob. 5hp is more than enough. Come and try mine
if you want.

Thanks, Marc. I was thinking of the 6HP since the weight is the same as the 5
hp. Price difference is just 60 bucks so bring on the extra horse.
I found other reviews online and am encouraged that this is the right dinghy.
If the sailkit is a total waste I'll just ebay it, but Baby Thomas might like
it in 4 or 5 years.
