Outboard motors (gas) also create orders of magnitude more vibration that will cause frames and welds to fail on frames not designed for the shock.
I have a compromise system I am working on....
An electric motor with a quiet gas generator as the power source.
This isn't something you'd want to buy from scratch but many folks have camping/emergency generators already.
And even buying from scratch the whole system would be less than a brand new 4-stroke outboard.
