Is a 4hp a waste of time for me?

[QUOTE="jethro, post: 465904, member: 12381"] Like said above, look for an older model as they will likely be twins, as opposed to now, there is nothing available below 8hp that is not a single cyl. I have a 6hp kicker that I really should have made more of an effort to find an 8 or a 9.9 because they are much more smooth running. I had an older '58 Evinrude Fastwin 2 horse and it was so smooth you could play Jenga from the gunwale of my canoe. The 6hp I have now shakes my entire 2800lb trolling boat. I actually wedge my fishing pliers under the console so it doesn't rattle so bad. Wish I still had that Fastwin. [/QUOTE]
