I just acquired a Johnson super seahorse 50 hp. the model # is v45-11 and the serial # is 1905938. The motor was stored in 1981. Could someone help me with the year and possible value of this heirloom (or white elephant) Thanks, Spanky
I only deal with "older" 'rudes and Johnsons but I believe 1958 and 1959 were the only years for the V-4 "fifty horse", in 1960 they made it a 75 horsepower. Rare White Elephant Perhaps
The mounting area says 50 and the side walls on the cover say 50, but the "door" to the pull line says 75-I assumed the "door" was a replacement. I know nothing about outboards-would you have an idea on the value of this fine machine Spank
