I am aware of that, but depending on the way the engine mount is, the fact that the 3.5HP doesn't have reverse gear might make a difference. Same with the fuel tank.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
