2HP of Freedom

2HP of Freedom
Fay's most recent article, entitled "My Two HPs of Freedom", where she extolls the virtues of our 2hp outboard, is in the current issue of Cruising World.

On New Morning we have two Yamaha 2cycle engines, a 15hp and a 2hp. We've both favor the 2hp whenever it can be used since we can put it on and off the dinghy with such ease, it seems to barely use any gas at all and who would want to steal a 2hp outboard? It's amazing how often the 2hp is the right engine. Of course we use the 15hp whenever we have more than the two of us or have a long trip to make in open water. But for going between boats and when the dingy dock is not too far, the 2hp is our outboard of choice!
