"The secondary backup plan would be to rig the dink with my 15 hp outboard and try to move the boat if I had to(but that would have to be in calm conditions only)."
Outboards come with different specifications.
If I were contemplating using the dink as an emergency engine ,
I would purchase the "Hi Thrust" variant that is sold to move sailboats , not a small prop dink motor.
Many mfg. sell these with gear deeper reduction and larger diameter props.
