I'll keep my four stroke 10 HP gas Honda until it dies, thank you. Gets to your duck spot faster and can fight a wind gust fine on a 14' aluminum john boat. Bought it in 2003 still boxed as a new 2000 model when my kicker had tasted enough mud. My first rule is never operate a boat that is underpowered in the wind. Helps get back to the landing after fishing half a day going downriver. I'll die before I buy an electric, underpowered outboard. Backed a cable nut out and it runs like a 15.

We would have sunk in tornado warnings after duck hunting without the power and experience. We didn't know we were in a tornado warning, but figured it was time to leave.
