Trying out the used 4 hp Mariner two stroke on my canoe on the Susquehanna River. There was a total of 5 passenger including myself, my three kids, and my much younger brother. My daughter was in the very front of the boat, in front of my brother. Over 500 lbs. of weight in the canoe.
wow that is moving pretty good. i saw this on CL by the way. haha. but i am looking at getting a 17ft model, and was wondering what motor size would be ebst fro going fast with 2 people and a cooler and maybe some fishing stuff, a 6hp 8hp or 9.9hp. i also have a 2hp to use for duck hunting that moves my 10ft flat bottom no problem. so i have one motor, i just want a faster one for summer time fun and getting to fishing spots speedily. please reply for the sake of my worries, haha, thans
