Ran it today for about 5 minutes, constant, and the motor was cold. The tug boat is about 20 pounds and has a displacement hull and was plowing the water. On full speed it started to look as if it would plow the front end under, a 36" Shelly Foss with a 12" beam. The motor preformed great.

I remember going to Home Depot with a Grapner 700 in my hand and had to trial fit some screws off the shelf, I am 99.5% sure I use the extra screws that worked on the 700s.
