Dad used to have a 2 or 3 horse on his 14" aluminum, and he'd load it in the back of his truck if he wanted. I have a small fiberglass that's about 4" long, hand made. Perhaps someone could make you a dingy to fit. Adrianne I have a 2hp outboar motor which I use on my canoe. It would be nice if I can use the same motor on the next boat. The main problem with the canoe (as far as I can tell) is the flat bottom and the low gunwales. Those features seem to make it unsuited to the choppy waters I frequently encounter. I'd like to get something that my 2hp motor will be adequate for. I was thinking perhaps a sailing dinghy hull (without the mast and sails...) Al Deveron You aren't looking to fish from this rig, right? |
