I just picked up a canoe that came with a 2.2 HP merc. Would this be
powerful enough to use as a troller / kicker for my 17 1/2' fiberglass sea
ray? I was hoping it could serve to get us home if the main motor ever
quits.

I think for that size boat a 6 HP is the best compromise. of course
dont be thinking you will be steering this home against lots of wind
and waves.

Just for trolling it will be just fine (as long as the shaft fits)
