The Classic Outboard Motor Handbook has a lot of good info, especially if you are relatively new to the hobby. It has excellent color photos. It’s written by Peter Hunn, who also wrote the Old Outboard Handbook, but it’s 100% different. I don’t know if the Classic book is in print anymore, but you may find one on E-Bay or craigslist. The front cover below gives a list of some of the stuff in it.

my favorite was CHEAP OUTBOARDS it covers mid 50s to early 60’S oldies combined with a few good utubes it will help you get your beauty back on the lake for years as a purring troller or a great back up to a modern hard to fix engine 🙂

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

Here is a three volume set that I really like. They are a collection of articles written by an AOMCI club member. Lots of history and short story’s. I think you can get them from Amazon.
