[QUOTE="Ray Clark, post: 509886, member: 31103"] If it checks good on the motor mechanically, then based on what you describe, and your intended use, I say go for it. Sounds like a good starter boat. I think the DF4A is a four stroke motor; no need for mixed gas. Yes, I would carry a small can of gas for reserve; 1 gallon would be more than sufficient. For just puttering around and fishing, 4 HP is enough to get from Point A to Point B. You won't be pulling tubers or any of that stuff, but it will be fine for fishing. If it's taken care of with regular preventive maintenance, that motor could last you a very long time. [/QUOTE]
