Sheesh!None of you ever heard of the Cruise'n'Carry outboards? They were weed
eater motors properly set up as outboards. No longer made but you can still
buy a brand new one for about $300 and get parts for it. I am on my third.
First was stolen. Second fell into the drink when the mount on the inflatable
dinghy broke off. Third still runs fine after nearly twenty years. Really
noisy, though.
