I recently purchased an old MFG boat with a 50 horse Johnson from my girlfriends aunt. $250 for the whole package. Hasn't been run since '94. Model is 50RL72C. Serial number is E361548. Any info you could give me would be greatly appreciated. :confused:

That OMC family of in-line loop charged engines were better than excellent engines.<br /><br />Good luck. :)
