Lesley - when I replaced outboard in my old C27 bought an Evenrude 9.9 electric start.  Two stroke.  Had to cut out about an inch on the bottom of the transom - filled with Marine Tex and sanded smooth.  Couldn't close cover so cut out  section of lid and build teak box about inch or so high to fit over part cut out.  Sanded and varnished.  Looked good.  Think some folks bought Yamaha or Nission engines that fit ok.  Good luck.     Clyde Thorington ex C27 now C30 #3730 ILEAN2 San Jose, CA
