What Year Is my Motor?

[jiminmontana]

Hey, Folks:

I just can't figure out what year and model my motor is. It's on a 1957, 19 ft Lone Star Caribbean. Uses 50:1 ratio.

If you have an idea who might know, please tell me.

And is there a location where the year/model info is on the motor?

Photos are on my blog at

Thanks Much

It is the exact same year and model as it was the last time I answered your question. It is either a 1964 or 1965 90hp. If you want to narrow it down between the two, go to http://www.old-omc.de/ and compare the decals.

1964 is model V4M-10
1965 is model V4M-11

Hey! Pay attention! I deleted your first offer to break federal law. We do not allow illegal transactions here.

Upon further consideration and research, it is a 1964 90hp.

I got it resolved. The paint over the ID plaque was so thick that I couldn't find an outline. Yes, it's a '64. I'm sorry, that I didn't get your replies -- didn't get notified. Thank you.​
