Default small outboard motor

Our ancient 3 HP gamefisher has finally become more of a problem than
it's worth and we're thinking of finally buying something new for
powering a small boat. (We're not mechanically inclined and it's become
impossible to find anyone to work on the motor). Thinking of something
around 3 HP and hopefully under 30 lbs. Which outboards would you
recommend? We'll be carrying it in our motorhome. We really liked the
air cooled gamefisher (although it WAS noisy) but I really have no idea
of the differences between air cooled and water cooled. I'm thinking
that the air cooled engines might be better for storing on it's side in
an RV compartment. Really appreciate your opinions and any
recommendations on where to purchase.

The only air cooled small outboard that we've found locally is the
Honda (new but last year's model for $750)

Thanks!
