Title: Motors for Our Lass Fishing boat
Post by: Nick1 on May 26, 2012, 09:55:21 pm

I have a Model Slipway Our Lass Fishing boat that I bought from a friend. The problem is, its only got a small 400 MFA motor in it and I'm sure this is far to small. Could anyone tell me the correct motor I should have in it please. I would like something fairly powerful?

Many thanks
Nick

We're out of stock of 900 motors;  Dave at ACTion or Mark at MMB may have stock (numbers in the Traders Directory).

Nope. Mark stopped selling them about a year ago and we have now run out of stock with no prospect of getting any more. You're down to the Graupner Speed 900BB or 720BB Torque.
