I need an electric start 4-stroke outboard (either 10 or 15 hp), but cannot find a dinghy to fit my boat that will accommodate the central steering console.
So a tiller conversion for gear/throttle and steering, and a small remote panel for the ignition/starter is the obvious solution.
Less obvious is how to find such an engine. Can an electric model (with toothed flywheel, larger alternator, etc) be converted to take a tiller handle?
It need not be a Mariner.
