Ron, I think someone in the group might have tried a standard remote outboard tank with the end fitting downstream from the bulb removed. If the bulb pumps fast enough, it might be adequate. Never tried it myself.

I'm going to check on the Moeller Flo-n-Go fuel pump (it appears to be a small, manual gas pump that fits into your jerry can and is attached to a 4 foot gas station like hose and fill handle. I have not yet thoroughly researched the item, so I don't know how small a jerry can you can use, but the prospect of simply inserting a lightweight fill handle into my Honda 2 hp rather than holding the jerry can out and over the engine sounds intriguing. The new type of jerry can fill nozzle is difficult to use and can easily create spillage. If anyone has knowledge of or experience with this type of device, I'd sure appreciate hearing about it.

The reason I was considering it was that it has reverse and an external fuel tank. I do not like having to hang over the boat to refuel in the middle of a chop also reverse wpuld be a nice thing to have again... Thanks again to all...
