Use my Minn Kota 40 # thrust short shaft for my limited cruising in NE US waters. on my 10 ft.
dinghy. Should have gotten bigger but wanted short shaft.
Use 2 -35ah bateries ...charge with
solar panel and/or connect to house bank when
extended motoring.
Is slow go but still faster than rowing. (other day had 4 of us and provisions on board)
Better with 1-2 on board, 5-6 knots, but even a modest chop or
current will again slow it down.
No gas on board, space, infrequent use/gas outboard issues, prime reason for use on my smallish 30 fter.
