There is a J24 at our club with a propane outboard. The motor is fairly new but shows a lot of corrosion.

If I were to buy a new dingy motor I'd look at the Honda 2.3 HPW 4 stroke. 30 pounds, internal gas tank, quiet and less than $1K.

I've not really looked at motors yet but have seen the information on the Lehr propane models and was intrigued by their light weight, no need for gas/oil etc. Can you share any more details on your experience with it? How long have you had it? Can you pull off the propane tank when its half empty and does that then allow you to stow it in a locker below or does it still have propane in the engine somewhere, lurking to escape into your bilge?
