[QUOTE="enginerd, post: 416941, member: 21309"] I wouldn't expect that you'd have any issues with the higher horsepower engine; you'd just need to be judicious with the use of the throttle. If you are concerned about being a novice boater, there are plenty of boating courses available. Two great resources are the USCG Auxiliary's training classes or BoatUS online boating courses, but there are a lot of other options out there. As for keeping the 4-hp as a backup, that's really personal preference. I would probably sell it or trade it in; most newer engines are very reliable. [/QUOTE]
