One problem with a gasoline outboard is the gasoline storage. My tool shed smells like gas because the gas vents in the summer. Another problem is that transporting the gasoline can in my...

Hi,
Thanks for everyone’s comments. I’m still thinking about the motor. Online outboard has a sale $779 for the 2.5hp Suzuki but it’s on back order. Gave them my email if they get more.
