I've just about got over it now - by the time I fit a tow hitch and buy a road trailer then the cost and effort of the whole exercise for someone who has never sailed dinghies and wouldn't use it much is losing appeal. Perhaps a lovely summer of idyllic backwaters will rekindled the urge. (so to speak).

You should just be able to squeeze a nice V6 engine in the back there

Do you think my Honda 2.3 outboard is a V6?

Is that horsepower or litres capacity? 2.3L outboard should have enough power to push it along at a decent speed!

I suspect it'd need a periscope fitting first though....
