[Ensign] [Phrf] Sailboat Motor

[Clay Babcock]

We have a Torqeedo 1003 on Blackjack, which weighs all of 1300 lbs. Does
just fine for us on the buoy. The motor would push most WYC boats around in
light, but in a blow it might be trouble. I'd ask Temple, he has one on his
Capri 25 in a slip and that's more of an apples:apples comparo.
