Had the Honda 2 on my 16 before I sold it, worked fine and was nice and light.

The Honda BF2 has all kinds of power.  It is quite enough to move this little boat.  I used to have a  three quarter HP engine on it, so this 2 is really a treat.

The motor propels the boat at 4 knots in flat water at just over the clutch engagement speed.

I was able to propel my boat while towing a San Juan 21 through choppy water into a 10 MPH headwind this weekend using about 80% throttle.

I just purchased the Honda 2 Long Shaft and found that it works very well.  We have to fight a strong current to get out and it handles this with no problem at about half throttle.
