Bought a cottage and acquired an outboard motor. It is too heavy for me. It is white, ser# 348345, Model # FD16A. Any information, value would be appreciated.<br />Just found the site. It's great.

Re: old Johnson Sea Horse

Thank you for the reply. I am planning to drop down to a 9.9 or even a 6 HP as I have a little 16' Springbock. I have my 6HP Johnson kicker on it now but would like that moptor back on the kicker bracket on the 1700 Crestliner. Thanks again. Great site
