Sea King I. D.

[Toolmanroberts]

I am trying to get engine information [year and manufacturor] for an old Sea King 35 HP outboard model# vwb27935A serial# 76x 10444. Any info would be helpful.

Made by West Bend, Chrysler, Force, Mercury/Force. All the same, they just kept selling the company, till Mercury abandoned it.

76X tells the year. Reverse the 76 and it becomes 67 ---1967 Nice of Wards to do that, huh?

Hi y'all from the cornusker state. I don't like to jump on other peoples threads but I couldn't find a spot where I could post a new thread. Help me out or just tell me to keep posting until I can become a thread startere.

Ok here is my problem. I've recently came into a 12 Wards Sea King. Three seats, semi-v, without a motor. It has no nameplate on it, and I want to know what my restrictions are. i.e Weight, HP, and total weight with gear.
Also I want to do a restore on it. Can I take the front seat out and put in a livewell and keep the structure and safety of the boat in tack. I only ask because I have a 5 yr old that does the catfishing thing with me at nights and I don't want to be the cause of a problem for anybody.
Any help is appreciatted.
Thanks
