Hi folks. I purchased a rather clean mariner 30E outboard engine today. The guy I purchased it from told me that it was a mid 90's model but im not so sure.

Could anyone please tell me the exact year and whether its a yamaha or mercury built engine.? I would have a guess its a 1987 model built by mercury altho im always wrong.

Help on this from any of you guys would be greatly appreciated. Thanx in advance.

Details on the plate are:: 30E 689 S 107854

Google is your friend.

Search for 'mariner outboard parts', there are plenty of websites (including iboats). Many of these sites have excellent parts lists. You will need to search for sites that cater for your region of the world.

What you need is a 'remote control attaching kit'.
