Re: post pics of your mercs

Yes very good deal. It took me a couple of weeks to buy it due too the low price. Turns out the guy had to sell cause he had it at his parents house and the house was up for sale. He initially wanted $500 for it but after the two weeks he offered it at $300. I thought what the heck, I can get that much for it in parts. So, I bought it, and he even delivered it to the house. So far, very happy with it.

1971 Mercury 650 (65HP) / 1987 Peterson 14'

She's my first engine and boat, so I bought a manual and did all the work myself to learn as much as I could.
Mercury is such a great engine and so easy to work on. With the help of this forum, she's purring like a kitten!
Thanks to everyone. Here's my pics.

Re: post pics of your mercs

here's a pic of my infamous "9.8" merc I've been working on. It is finally a nice motor and will crank almost telepathically. It is also great on gas. As you might suspect, I like 'em a little smaller than most of you guys!:):)

Re: post pics of your mercs

Scaaty--your "flatbottom" is gorgeous! That merc looks sharp but how 'bout a sticker? Is that in the works? Chinewalker--I liked your smaller merc pics.. do ya' ever run 'em? My favorite is the 20hp.
Roger?--your 115 for $300 is beautiful--heck, I woulda bought that and I don't even have a boat to put it on--would just sit and look at it, though and get $300 worth of fun!
Enjoyed all the pics! MORE, MORE
By the way, thanks for you guys helping me with my 9.8!

Okay, here's my '86 Merc 75hp on my '69 MFG Edinboro. We just got new fabric for the bimini top and had to show it off. I got another better pic of the motor I'll get up later.
