OK so from what I've heard so far
There are two motors reputed to fit the existing cutout in the transom:
* The Yamaha 9.9 high thrust motor
* The Honda Classic (Suggested when I called Catalina) although I
haven't found a 4 stroke Honda with Classic in its name.
I've yet to hear directly from anyone that can personally confirm either
of these motors.
Most have used a mounting bracket and all of these installations used
remote controls.
