OK, yes, I did it. I have it on my canoe and I start and stop it a lot while fishing (trolling). It must have worked itself loose, so on a restart I pulled, grabbed the tiller, and the engine just jumped off the transom.

My 1975 Evinrude 4HP 2-stroke has died. Don't ask! ;)
It was a 2 cylinder model but weighed only 36 pounds.
I'm planning to replace it with a new 4-stroke since no one seems to make portable 2-strokes anymore. But since the weight of all the 4HP 4-strokes is so much more than 36 pounds...
