Nothing could be finer, though I wouldn't stick one on an aluminum boat.

Looks like the old 5HP Merc that we had on the back of your 14 foot lap-
strake boat. I was cruising along one day and the 70 year old boat's
transom finally succumbed to rot and the motor almost turned into an
anchor. luckily I was able to hold on to the handle and pull it back
from its potential watery grave.


Messing around in small boats...great fun.

The 1949 Mercury KF7 Super 10 Lightning in that video was more than 10
hp out of the box. Did you notice the retrofitted safety lanyard on the
motor?
