Steve Hughes thanks for the reply. That motor was restored by a friend for his boat. I’ve restored several Mercurys and Evinrudes for my personal boats.
Thanks for the comment Dennis! And, no it was not to fast to open it up. Usually boats like these run between 26 & 30 mph. It was really just a photography platform for two of my other vintage runabouts that morning. I’ve done photo shoots at 110 mph and at that speed you really don’t get the sensation of how fast you’re going in wide open flat body of water.
Beautiful motor. I just refurbished a 57 Golden Javelin..that is, a guy who knows how did it
