Some good news from Puerto Rico, republican thinking regarding demons, and in the "Hindsight's a bitch" department...
Sort of a blast from the past.
The Cruise'n carry, a rebranded Tanaka outboard, might not be the quietest outboard around but it has as much horsepower as most small hard dinghies require to make hull speed. Even better at only 12 pounds it's easy on the back.
For those interested in such a beast you should also be aware that the Tanaka was also rebranded by Gamefisher (Sears), and Waterbug.
Listening to a good/better/best coverage of the LA's
So it goes...
