[QUOTE="Buster, post: 496510, member: 27745"] I've got a 1966 Lund c14 fisherman that I put a Tohatsu 9.8 on last year. Can get just over 17mph in ideal conditions. I went with 9.8 because I needed electric start and the 9.9 with electric start was heavier. I spent a few months scouring local sales for an old 2-stroke with e-start but got impatient and bought new. I'd echo those suggesting a used 2-stroke. Lowest weight, best speed. But I do love the smooth, quiet, less stinky 4. Just think I've given up a few mph and added 30lbs to the transom. A reasonable trade off since I needed estart. [/QUOTE]
