Reply To: 2 hp Johnson or Evinrude — should I get one?

I agree with the above statements.

Just a suggestion: You would be better served getting a Johnson or Evinrude 3hp outboard. Made from 1952 to 1968. They are very good, solid, and reliable motors. Very easy to work on and all the parts are still available. The larger fuel tank would give you a good bit of range compared to the 2hp motors. They can mount on the side of the boat/canoe or on the transom easily. Do a You Tube search on these motors and you will be quite impressed. You would probably get a motor at a much better price than the 2hp Johnson/Evinrude.

Cheers
