      I’m a new member trying to find out about this motor. Am I in the right forum?  I don’t want to explain to much about it right now until I find out I’m in the right place. thanks for your time. Jim

        I have some experience with the 1 hp. Sea King
        Midget and may be able to help you.
        What are your concerns? Most commonly asked
        questions about that model are about the water pump.

          Thank you Tubs,

          I have an  instruction and parts list for the motor, on the cover it says…for motor numbers 469-04001 and up.  My motor says 469-02301.  Is this the right manual for my motor?  I tried to find info on the internet about this motor and decided the antique motor club might have answers.  Where would I be able to get parts for this?  I would like to get this running and if I need parts, I’m not even sure of the year.  I’m sure once I get into it, I will have more questions.

          Thanks,

          Jim

            I don’t have a listing for serial numbers
            but I’m guessing you motor is a 1946 – 47.
            What is the model number above the
            number you posted. That will identify
            the year. The magneto on the pre WW-II
            motors and the post WW-II motors are different.
            Otherwise the motors are the same.

                A slight correction 447 refers to a 1938 motor.
