Has anyone ever built one from the plans off ebay or just built one to see what would happen?? Have weed eater and have 2 trolling motors thought it might be a cheaper item than a small outboard??

seems like an inexpensive little kicker, but bet it would be noisy as all heck at WOT for any length of time.
 
here is one for sale https://smalloutboards.com/bumbee.htm

They seem to sell at around 100 bucks. which is a good choice but it is going to be really loud.
 
So who's going to be the first person to make a weed eater out of an Evinrude? :roll:

Those motors are like El Caminos, they don't really work either way!
 
You would be better off building a small mud motor from a 1.5hp or 2hp small enging, like from harbor freight, or from a used lawn mower or old pump/genny motor.

I think right now orion ouboards makes the smallest one @ 6hp.
