Default Re: repower suggestions

I echo the idea of a single 300, but strongly advise adding a 8-15 hp kicker motor for long trips offshore.

I once came back to Florida all the way from the Bahamas on just a 15hp Chrysler kicker motor after losing main power. It took us about 12 hours from Memory Rock. I REALLY like kicker motors, and I also like Chrysler. that motor ran at 90% power for 12 hours straight without a hiccup..
