I have two. An 89' 125 Force and an 87' 85 Rude. I'm not partial to either of these. I am more partial to a Yamaha (2 Stroke of course)

53 Johnson JW-10 3 hp, treats me like a kitten I saved from a shelter. Solid as a rock, one pull start almost every time and just purrs on the lake.

75 JCPenney 7.5 hp wi a Tecumseh powerhead and Eska lowerend. Starts reliably but shakes like a dog takn a schitt.

Oh yeah, 62 Johnson 25 hp. Reliable, the size of a car motor and heavy though.

Re: How many Outboards do you own ANY ONE ELSE!!!!

And I forgot a 57 Montogomery Ward Gale 5 hp I'm parting out. Was going to be a rebuild but too many parts had been taken from the lower unit for it to make sense. PM me if you are interested. Prices will be VERY reasonable. Not looking to make money on it, just dont want to throw it out.

Re: How many Outboards do you own ANY ONE ELSE!!!!

As of now I own 2. One is my ever trust worthy Johnson 7.5 J8RCIC and recently I purchased a "basket case" motor...It's a 3.6 horsepower Sears Ted Williams model...The funny thing about this motor is...It runs and starts FANTASTIC...BUT It leaks gas around the bowl of the carb and the drain plug in the bottom of the bowl...I ordered new parts "or at least the ones they still make" from SEARS to rebuild it...It is a Tecumseh motor by the way...Maybe and just maybe that is why it is a "BASKET CASE " motor...Ya think??? Maybe if I tell you the model number someone could maybe tell me the year it is...Model # 21758511...Any help would be GREAT and thanks... Jack

Re: How many Outboards do you own ANY ONE ELSE!!!!

I got a 7.5 hp Eska that came with the boat I bought. Its missing some things like the cowling and is corroded pretty bad. Would need some work.

Just got a 1987 Johnson 28 hp. SPL several month ago.

Re: How many Outboards do you own ANY ONE ELSE!!!!

Just two (for now). I have an mint, unrestored '58 JW14 3hp Johnson that runs like a dream. I have another '58: a QD19 10hp Johnson; ugly as sin to look at but runs fairly well and needs some definite restoration work both mechanically and cosmetically before she'll be as good as the JW. A coming winter project as soon as I can find a lower end for her (and a new prop).

Anybody??

Re: How many Outboards do you own ANY ONE ELSE!!!!

1940 Johnson 5 hp (AT-10), 1973 Chrysler 6 hp (62HD), 1976 Evinrude 35 hp (35602S), 1983 Johnson 50 hp (J50BELCTA) I love them all but will have to say they don't make them like they used too in the old days .the 1940 5 hp will out last them all. John

Just bought a project with a 1967 Mercury 650 but not sure which model it is.

Re: How many Outboards do you own ANY ONE ELSE!!!!

Three.
1981 Johnson 25hp
1988 Johnson 30hp
And here's the latest addition, Evinrude 30hp '87. I know I didn't need another motor, but it was so clean and runs great. Got a good deal too!
