Re: Inflatables
I haven't run it without the foil. The floor "waves" were a little disconcerting at first, but I think that is a sign it is getting ready to fully plane. I transported my motor in a "bigfoot bag". A medium fits my 25 with room left over. A small would probably work for a smaller motor, but I would measure to be sure. As a matter of fact, I got a Bigfoot bag for my boat, too. I got a large, but it was way too big. I would get a medium.
Anybody looking at one of these shouldn't get anything smaller than the SD365. The boat seems small inside, and I couldn't imagine turning something shorter.
Doofus, you would be better off shopping E-bay for a 2 stroke that you can store in any position. I store mine on its side, throttle handle down. A mid 80's Johnnyrude 15 would do a good job on this boat, probably as good as my 25 because of the change in horsepower ratings in the early 80's.
