I have a Nissan (NS 8B) version of that motor, but with electric start, remote, and alternator. Plenty of power, quiet, and light!

Caesar,
The motor is a 8 BHP Tohatsu, 2 stroke without electric start. It's easy to
start with just half of a pull. It's slightly louder than a four stroke
and burns a little more gas, but I love it. Two thirds throttle will bring
the boat to hull speed around 6 mph. I have never been at a lack for power,
even in high winds and heavy waves.

Rummy,
48 lbs! What's the horsepower of that motor, and how well does it move
Rum Runner? On a lake you don't have current to deal with, but at 48 lbs you
are making us with 100 lbs plus motor think we are carrying excess wait
and horsepower.

Lee,
>From the photos I don't see anything that looks unusual. You may have
found
the answer yourself. An electric winch motor draws a lot of amperage. Your
battery needs to be fully charged and fresh for it to provide sufficient
power to operate the lift. I don't see that 135 lbs would be to much
weight
for the lift motor, but then my Tohatsu weighs in at a hefty 48 pounds.
Try
spraying a little WD40 on the underside of the lift belt.
