Tohatsu now makes a 3.5 horse 4 stroke long shaft that only weighs 41
lbs. Might be a pretty good motor for those wanting something light
for
their M17's. It looks like it shares the same "chassis" as the 2
hp. If
you want to move up to a 4 hp, which shares the same chassis as the
5 and
6 hp motors, you jump to 57 lbs, but gain the external fuel tank
option.
The Suzuki and Yamaha 3.5 outboards look interesting for light use
also,
but as of yet do not seem to be available in long shaft models.
