The US website shows availability in 15, 20, and 25. The Canadian web site doesn’t show more than 20 HP

213lbs, 3cyl, 53cu.in., short shaft, power trim, small gearcase, ok ratio - 2.08:1

That's pretty light for a 4 stroke, wonder if you can adapt a pull start onto one. Pull off the power trim, change to 1.86 gears and it would make a decent thundercat engine

A prop calculator shows 23" pitch required to hit 60 mph with 8% slip. 56 mph with a 22" prop. It would make a good cottage VooDoo motor
