Gilbert you might check out the Yamaha 4 h.p . It's a nice unit , not too heavy and unless you're pushing against a strong current would probably move your M17 along smartly. It also has an internal tank and the connection for the external tank. I had the Suzuki 6 h.p. 4S on a Ranger 20 and it was a good motor also. It weighed about 56 lbs. and also had the internal and connection for the xtank. Randy W.

I am sorry about your bike Randy, it is especially bad when the loss is something you use everyday. I saw the brochure on the Yamaha 6 dry weight is 80+ pounds, and I thought Giles motor was heavy at 60 pounds. I went to the Honda dealer and saw a real 2.5 $657.00 and a 5 honda it look pretty big and beefy, funny thing it was about the same size and weight as suzuki 9.9.
