		A person's first boat, 12-15 foot, underpowered with a 6-10 hp motor, and the wind goes from glass calm to 15-30 mph in minutes.  Several miles across to the ramp.  "I can make it"  Only a matter of time.  Story at 10.  
And most decent, reliable 10 hp motors will cost nearly the whole budget. I've been a multiple power boat owner and operator for over 40 years. Just my opinion.
