[QUOTE="ErnieLearns, post: 430267, member: 21993"] Are there or were there any small outboards designed for use in near freezing conditions? I plan on storing it in a shed at the cottage and just putting it on a 14 foot boat to go perch fishing or trolling for browns. I know mud motors are air cooled and may have less problems then traditional outboards. I also recall Briggs and Stratton had some 5 hp power motors that were air cooled a decade ago. I would also imagine that mud motors and the Briggs and Stratton outboards had lower unit lube that could get water in it if the seals went bad. [/QUOTE]
