I suggest the used route unless you plan to use the dinghy a lot.
If you decide on new, I'd consider the propane powered Luhrs (sp?) at about $1000-light and no fuel hassles.

My 4hp Yamaha starts all the time and is much lighter than the comparable 4 stroke and powers the high pressure floored Avon just fine. I do own a 4 stroke 8hp, but she sits on the RIB and never moves. Damn thing weighs a ton. The RIB is great locally but needs the additional horsepower. David F.

I have recently bought an 8ft inflatable as tender and am looking at second hand outboard options. Can you advise me of adequate size required? Specifically I have seen a 2,2 hp advertised. Will that be enough to potter to the dock and back? The safety sticker on the boat says up to 5hp but that seeems a bit much and heavy.
