Never. My suggestion if a change is made is to go with twin 6 hp engines instead of 9.8's. The point is not to go fast, but to go far on very little fuel at a decent rate of speed.

One of the early trials of the 27 foot ELB (extremely light boat) known as the Cowmaran with twin 9.8 hp Tohatsu outboards. The performance increase over the single engine configuration was a bit disappointing, in part due to propellers without enough pitch. The boat was outrunning the props and the engines would rev past the limit if we let them.
