[Electric Boats] Re: Outboard in lazertt

" PLANNING ON MOUNTING ENGINE IN A MOTOR WELL IN THE LAZERETT HAS ANYONE DONE THIS????"

I've known a few people with outboards in lazarette wells. I believe that this was done on a number of designs by a variety of builders in that period. It seems like a reasonable plan if your boat's underbody design is compatible. That wouldn't work on my full keel Bermuda 30, but it should work on any fin keel boat with a spade rudder.

Fair winds,
