We have a Yamaha 1000, and it works fine on the CDory. I have not
installed an electrical system on the M15 yet, so have not a need.
Caveat -- the carb is extremely sensitive to old fuel. Make sure
you get it emptied before storing.

opening of the big port locker and carried upright. The comparable

draining the
carburetor would be more difficult, but the dimensions and specs
are nearly
identical. One of course has to be careful with the exhaust

a weight of less than 30 lbs, one of these units would be good
insurance
without undue bulk.

Subject: M_Boats: M-15 charging batteries
Any of you skippers carry a small gas generator on board for charging
batteries?
Are you using outboards that have charging cabilities?
Thanks
