CD10 outboard question

Post by Dan Edson »

I'm considering buying a CD10 to use as a tender and sailing dory. I know the CD10 can handle an outboard (I would put a 2.2 Suzuki on it), but I have questions about functionality. Can an outboard be mounted off-center so it remains on the CD10 all the time, regardless of whether one is sailing or powering? Does it get in the way when sailing? I would be sailing primarily in tidal water with a stiff current, and depending on wind, tide, and current, there would definitely be times when I would need the OB. Thanks.
