Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice. We are sorry about the inconvenience and will advise when the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience.
Can you buy one to bolt up? No. Could you throw enough money at it to have someone fabricate what you needed to make something that was workable? Maybe, but I'm not sure I'd trust it when it was done...
i can only think of a couple of reasons why anyone would want to do that, but under normal circumstances, those motors are so easy to start why would you want to?
Long and short of it is if the motor was never issued as a electric start motor, then it would be a totally fabricated add on, not the best even when done well.
Ok thanks, I'm eventually going to throw it on my 18' as a kicker motor. I figured people tie them in to the dash somehow but I guess I'll just be pull starting it in the back when needed.
