I believe Caille was the first to offer an auto rewind starter on an outboard in 1914. . . 😉

Caille was indeed the first to install a rewind starter, I believe this one is a 1916 or later model. AOMC member Tom Goepfrich owns this wonderful example.

Enjoy.

He's livin' in his own private Idaho..... I hope to go out quietly in my sleep, like my grand-dad did..... and not screaming, like the passengers in his car...
