I have an 11' tender which is currently supplied with rowlocks. It is

What size Outboard should I buy?


Anything less than 9,9HP and you are kidding yourself, and it WILL be 4
cyl, if you're smart.

A 4 cyl 9.9 HP outboard would be a marvel of miniturization. Perhaps
you meant a 4 cycle engine - you know - the heavy ones you have to set
down just so, or they'll dump heavy crankcase oil on the dock and then
into the water...
