Thank you all for your advice. The Lyman 13 is indeed 13 feet long. By hefting the bow then stern on the trailer I'm guessing it weighs about 400 pounds, empty. I think I'll try the $400 Minkota Traxxis rather than the $3000 Torqueedo, which appears to have twice the power. If unsatisfactory I can upgrade, or maybe get two Traxxis units, but it will be a while before I finish preparing the boat and reporting back. I'll also have to figure out how to adapt the motor to the remote steering and throttle cables already installed.
