Posted - 09 Oct 2013 : 22:49:42 ive had a 20 hp mercury 2 stroke on since I have owned the boat, recently put a 15hp 4 stroke on the difference in lower noise and better fuel consumption, get a four stroke if you can

Posted - 09 Oct 2013 : 22:36:13 If you are on the canal a 9.9hp is ideal. Many people have up to 15hp. Try to get 4 stroke if possible. |

Posted - 09 Oct 2013 : 21:18:58 What size engines are 20 owners using?
I have the chance of a 2 stroke Mercury 40hp but wonder if that's gonna be too big and will it run lumpy at the low speeds required.
I'll be using it on the river Trent. |

Posted - 09 Oct 2013 : 14:43:51 Thanks everyone. I thought as much but wanted to check with the guys in the know. Typical really as I have a great 15hp Johnson short shaft with brand new gearbox that I use on my inflatable rib. |
