Default Outboard Motor

I have a 4 hp Yamaha 4-stroke, much quieter than my old 7 hp 2-stroke,
especially at low RPM. I imagine that a smaller Honda 4 stroke would be
even quieter.

I have not used it on my canoe, too heavy, probably too powerful, around
50 pounds, I recall. I use it on a 14 foot aluminum boat that weighs
150 pounds or so. The aluminum boat lives on the trailer, although I
think that it could be rooftopped with the right system.
