Default New Boat/Motor

Hello,I just purchased a Used 1977 Bomber 16' with a 75 Mariner Serial #0B288335 What year is the motor and where can I obtain a repair manual on it? Where do I go to pull the year from the Serial?Thank you. I also have a trim issue, but I need to tinker for a bit before I bother you all.Also call me dumb, I am first real boat. I saw 3 Spark Plugs, so common sence means that it is a 3 Cylinder? 2 Stroke or 4 ?Thank youBrett

Hi Brett..Im going to take a shot here and say that the year on that motor is an '88, and a two-stroke. Here's where I found the serial number.. http://www.marinshopen.se/guide/mp/marguide.htm Captn---

Hello Captn,Thx. It would be nice if there was a way to be sure, but that seems like a good conclusion. I'll assume it's an 88 and dig up a manual and take a look .Thank you...
