It was time to move the dock to its winter cove......about 2 kms from our cottage. This usually involves either lashing it to the side of my 17.5/75hp or towing it with the same. I have to say this has always been a real pain. NO LONGER!!! This year I bolted a makeshift mount to the end and dropped the little 1965 9.5hp you guys helped me rebuild on it. It easily powered my 10'x24' dock and steering was a breeze for a change. The more I run this quiet little (tricky to work on) motor....the more I love it. I'd say its more like a 7.5 or 8 hp......but it sure is quiet, smooth, and will troll all day. thanks again
