M_Boats: motors

Hello M-sters, Has anyone out there with a fully-loaded (electrical system, etc.) late-model M17 tried to push it with a 2 hp outboard? I know a 5 or 6 is better for long trips with no wind, but a 2 is so much lighter and easier to store that I am hoping it might be enough for maneuvering around marinas, etc., or even making a few miles in a pinch. I would do a test myself, but snow is approaching the garage eaves, and my 17 wishes to remain safely inside until the snow stops falling. Thanks, Tom Jenkins M17 Scintilla, June Lake, CA
