I have a Johnson that's, er, well, mmm, nevermind... :D <br />I do have a useable Evinrude motor from the earlier part of the last century that I lend out to some neighbor teens for use on their jonboat. That motor is older than most of us, and prolly works better too... :)

My mother wasn't even old enough to conceive when my motor was made.
