Default Re: kicker for a 23

Fr. Frank I'm curious , did you carry an extra tank for the kicker ,and when you needed it ,mixed the oil in or did you somehow connect to the onboard tank and add the additional oil in as needed.Back in the late sixties/early seventies my family had a 19' Flying Scot sailboat with a British seagull for aux. power . They looked so primitive but it ran like a top. I'm considering mounting some type of bracket inside the console on the Seacraft to keep the kicker,so as not to have it in the way mounted to the Armstrong bracket when fishing , or am I over thinking the situation. When fighting a fish that runs under the rear it seems tricky sometimes trying work him around the engine.I can imagine another engine hanging off is just more of a hassle. Any thoughts/suggestions very much appreciated.
