Electrical noise, but it has several batteries to push the boat in a breeze.
If you do not have the noise, however, the gas is lighter and easier.
I want to go with HP for 10 to 15, which take you home if the engine has major problems, can.
Both options have advantages and disadvantages.
Electricity is clean, quiet and reliable. It is necessary to adjust the books came with the weight of the boat and the proposed water line. Electricity, they can set a variable (slow) at high speeds. If you choose this option, I recommend using a separate battery to use, so they end up somewhere you can not start the main driving force. There are also switch / relay kit, be installed to provide only the battery that operates up to a certain point and then turn the electric motor can provide, if you trust him. You are at a speed of them. And on the setting you use, the faster you drain your battery.
The petrol version, you should go with a 4-time is not a 2-stroke. More noisy, smelly and a lot more expensive and require more maintenance. Sometimes they are not allowed in some lakes and some rivers have a maximum of 10 hp. It can also be difficult to adapt and a constant speed. You can use the wind loads on the boat, specifically contrary: Numbfirst man, the fuel load, etc., must be stabilized for the winter and fuel storage. You are not limited to a specific period, provided that you pack enough fuel.
In the end, the problems will be assessed and their own purposes. Both are excellent for their intended purpose. Just decide what is really going to do with it and just weigh your options. Happy surfing!

where the wind will not carry out electrical work. You will need two batteries, and maybe a size of 24 volts for about 2-3 hours. Weight of ship and cargo, especially if it is a deep-V hull is a heavy load on the engine. For the gas. in order to confirm control MotorGuide websites Suggestions capacity charges.
My stepfather is an electric motor in his 29 meter Bayliner, and works very well and are super quiet, perfect for sneaking in a frying pan!
Electric. Remote silent, efficient, more fun in the cocktail cruise.
