Outboard

Would a Tohatzu 9.8 be a good first time outboard for a Honwave T38 IE2 inflatable?

Or i have the chance of a 25 HP Short Shaft Suzuki DT25 2-stroke Outboard Motor Engine

Something inbetween would be best maybe - the 15hp 2 stroke Yam or Tohatsu is perhaps the ideal match, not sure of the max rating (if it takes the 25 then it will be very lively)!

We have a nice Tohatsu 25 which has just arrived. Very clean. Short shaft tiller control. PM if interested.

hi

Its a great engine so I would try it first as I think you will be v happy. If you feel you need more speed you can always upgrade to more HP after trying you tohatsu
