What is the lightes 4hp 4 stroke outboard?

[smsislander]

I have a 13' inflatable kayak with a mm3 transom.<br />Living in Ca. requires me to go 4 stroke on some lakes. The transom is rated for a 3.5hp gas motor and I found that I shouldn't put any motor over 45 lbs. on this transom. I'd like to put a twin 4hp 4 stroke on this craft. Any ideas.

See: http://www.yamaha-motor.com/product...ear=2003&cat=Four+Stroke+Series&scat=Portable <br /><br />It's a 1 banger; Tohatsu/Nissan/Mercury makes one @ 57 lbs., as does Honda
