Location: Conn in summers , Ortona FL in winter , with big dock & room for O'nite stop .
There are many barges fitted with DD 8v71 and a leg that lowers into the water, outboard style,Does that Qualify as an outboard?

The diesel is bolted to the deck, and uses a radiator to cool .

Not fast , but think of the bollard pull!
