Latest find – 1948 Evinrude Sportwin

[lindy46]

I purchased 2 motors yesterday, an Evinrude Sportwin and a Mighty Mite WC1. I’ll add another post about the Mighty Mite.  I got this 1948 Sportwin for $50. It’s complete except for the lower side cowls (anyone have them?). Haven’t done much with it yet but did check spark and got spark on both cylinders. I’ll check compression today.

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

Heck of a deal for $50.00!!!!   Hope it runs as good as it looks – if it does, you can run it like you stole it!!

Does anyone make carb rebuild parts for these?

If you search the forums, Mumbles had information on replacing the carb primer seals.

Prepare to be boarded!
