Not feasible for our use ( trolling perhaps ? ) .Could it be in the future ?

Largest that is offered  is a 15 hp ,31 lb tank 11.4 hrs @ 3000 rpm  ,5 hrs @5000 rpm .
 
What's that smell?

Gotta light?

Just saying
 
Gerry is getting excited!!
 
An oil change on a small outboard motor wouldn't be required but every 8-10 years.  They just don't pollute in any way.  But those tanks get downright heavy to handle.  You could always go to Northern Tool and get an adapter that would allow you to offload propane from large tanks into those 10" x 5" propane bottles.

Ha-Ha Derrick.  :D   Caught me.  Really I feel safer around my propane tanks than refilling my gasoline lawnmower.  Gasoline vapors are very flammable and have a broader ignition range then propane.  Cannot spill into the water.  Darn it Derrick you got me started !   Gerry  :unsure:
