Hi,

Can anyone recommend a small, lightweight outboard motor that's suitable for kayaks?
Any info would be appreciated

 For my fly fishing pram I've currently got a Honda 2 hp. Quiet, 4-stroke, light weight (27 pounds), gas tank on motor, very fuel efficient. Had a 2.5 hp Yamaha earlier but a tweaker stole it. Again it was quiet and fuel efficient. I think it weighed about 37 pounds. The next step up is 4 & 5 hp, but they are a lot heavier.
