I have an aluminum 12' jon boat. A family friend has a Mercury 4HP outboard that I may be able to get. All I've been told is that it's only a couple years old. Would this be a 4 stroke engine? Is it a good engine and would it plane the boat with just me in it or with me and another adult in the boat? Is there anything in particular to know about this engine? Thanks.

Thats a nice little engine from what I've heard as I know a couple of people that have them. Unfotunatly you won't get much of a plane even by yourself. What you will get is from point A to point B.
