OMC Tiller motors

[shinytopgeezer]

Does anyone know the bigger OMC tiller motors? Any 3cyl, 60 or 70 horse models?

I've only seen 50HP in tiller "out-of-the-box." I believe they make a conversion kit for some outboards, but you'd have to do a little digging on that.

Welcome aboard.

They show a 125 HP commercial model with a tiller in 1997.----Are you looking for a tiller motor ?----Have parts for a 70 HP tiller here.---Have a long tiller handle suitable for a V-4 here too.----Your location ?-----The V-4 was available with tiller handle steering for some years.----Clearly shown in the brochure.-----Called a ---" Back troller "---for marketing purpose.

racerone, thank you for your quick response! I'm in Ohio, but really I was just thinking of my ultimate boat, if it was even possible, Had a Johnson 3 cyl long ago on a glass tri-hull. Motor was always consistently smooth, instant starting and economical. Like my Mom always told me "If wishes were horses, beggars would ride". Again, thank you.

The market for big tillers varies.----Lobster fisherman , shell fish harvesters , native fishing people like these big tillers.----Depends on where you are.

my brother had a 90hp E-ETEC tiller model. must be some used ones around but ETEC's are no longer made (evinrude folded) unless you have a local tech to support them...maybe best to look at other stuff.

I am sure there are some E-TEC tiller kits on the shelf somewhere.-----See one for 60,70 ,90 HP listed at only $1411.49
