Speaking of the Tanaka, I have a Cruise N' Carry 1.5 hanging in the garage. It too is an oil slick waiting to happen. But I'm holding on to it as my planned power source for my latest restoration project. I am restoring a 1972 vintage M-5.5 Montgomery pram. I'm not sure what the intended power source was for this little tug, since it didn't come with oarlocks and it wasn't set up as a sailing pram.
Last season I saw a plywood/glass dingy, probably about 7'', with a Tanaka 1.25 on it. So the 1.5 should be plenty for your M-5.8... :-) cheers, John S. -- John Schinnerer - M.A., Whole Systems Design -------------------------------------------- - Eco-Living - Whole Systems Design Services People - Place - Learning - Integration john@eco-living.net - 510.982.1334 http://eco-living.net http://sociocracyconsulting.com
