Hi Dale Good spotting! That is an older model Evinrude detachable row boat motor What you guys call an R.B.M It is one of the first of this motor with just the one large piston ring but missing the tiller handle and ignition however it will be a great display one Have attached some pics of restoration as done so far
Hello everyone who has gotten back to me re “what do I have here” Thank you all for your interest and comments and follow up Seems to me I have stumbled on a group of dedicated conservists so well done all of you and keep up the good work on these old puppies!
It looks like one that was sold by Clinton or sold with a Clinton engine about 50-60 years ago. So I Googled Clinton outboards and came up with this one ( Matalex ” Spartan” ) in a museum in Vancouver. They may have been a 4 cycle engine.
