I think Ski-Doo went exclusively to Rotax in '63 or '64.
Your Ski-Doo single must have been around 300#, my Cobra is more like 450#, the
Cat is probably the same or just a bit more. My '95 Ski-Doo Grand Touring is
around 800#. I got that one stuck (buried really) just once. Had to use an 8'
long 2x8 on a firewood fulcrum to lift it up and stuff more firewood under the
track. With 13-14" of suspension travel I had to lift it quite high to get
enough track exposed for the job at hand.
Learned to beware those "slight" depressions. This one happened to be full of
water and much deeper than it looked.

'Enjoyed riding my Ski-Doo on new snow or any deep snow in the MI UP, but it
was really frustrating when the plug would stop firing and I'd be stuck in
snow 2 or 3 feet deep. Hard to get started again and back up on top of it
from a full stop buried in it. Fouled plug seemed to occur way too often.
No fun man-handling a one-banger Ski-Doo. hat were those engines? Sachs?
'Can't remember.
