Outboard Motor Rentals ?

Hey guys,
I'm getting back into the boat *thing* cause we ain't got much longer left

So..I was wondering if Anyone knows of a place that rents Out-Board Motors. Out for the summer??? does this even exist? How much to rent one from say: June to September???

I'd like to buy a motor but that probably wont happen, till next season

I'd like a 25, 30 or 35 Hp Motor. (anything between 20 and 35 hp will do)

Max motor capacity is 40hp. and back when this boat was built a 40hp was about the size of todays 75hps

So i think it will handle a 35 without my transom falling off
(seen a 19' bayliners transom crack right down the middle, funny thing was it was a 1996 and only had a 50 hp on it )
Hope that never happens to me....


wondering: what kind of speed will i get out of a 35 hp Motor on this heavy ol' boat ??

As in speed- i mean im Not looking to be one of the Top-Fuel Race boats on ESPN2 or anything- just want to be able to get out of the way of Big boats and stuff


thanks,
Mike
