A 2 hp outboard motor can be suitable for a 12 ft fiberglass boat, especially for calm waters and low-speed cruising. However, its power may be limited for heavier loads or rough conditions. It's important to consider the boat's weight, intended use, and local regulations regarding motor size. For more demanding conditions or higher speeds, a slightly more powerful motor may be advisable.

What are the advantages of using a boat with an outboard motor for recreational activities on the water?
Using a boat with an outboard motor for recreational activities on the water offers several advantages. Outboard motors are portable, easy to maintain, and provide good maneuverability. They are also efficient in terms of fuel consumption and can be easily tilted out of the water when not in use, reducing the risk of corrosion. Additionally, outboard motors are typically less expensive than inboard motors, making them a cost-effective option for recreational boating.
