Post advice needed
I have a older aluminum canoe(square stern) 33''x16' rated for 1 1/2 hp. with 2 people that motor will get this up and move. Looking to go to a long tail to get shallow. Want to make long 4-6 hour slow trips bird watching in it also. Any advice would be appreciated
Thanks

Im not sure if it'll let me post a link but look up RickShaw mud motors (https://vimeo.com/1319804) its nothing fancy basically just a weed eater with a prop but for that small of a boat and if you don't care about speed it might be a good option, also Stump jumper makes a light 7hp mud motor (63 lbs) but that might be a bit much for the back a canoe unless you can find a way to reinforce it
