Hi ALL!
I have a 10'
Avon Redseal dingy which I need an ouboard for. Mfg. recomendation is max 4hp. I was looking at 4, 4.5 and 5 hp until I read an article some where that said if you give the
motor to much gas at the the start the Redseal has a tendancy to fold in the middle as the
engine goes down at the stern. I'm wondering if I should really be looking a 3hp? I thought with a little larger
engine we could get it to plane but it sounds like the Redseal is more of a
displacement dingy. I do have the floorboards but am missing the stringers. Anyway, has anyone out there had experience with the
Avon Redseal and might enlighten me as to what HP
outboard I should buy for it?
Thanks for your help!
Tom
