Micke Frodé goes from a SAAB inboard to outboards.
The Z-4 cat below build by Mikael Frodé around 1976 was first designed for a 2 liter SAAB 4 cylinder inboard..
Well..on the back of the transom Mikeal installed a paddle wheel…!!!!!
The paddle wheel was very good but SAAB in Sweden could not deliver the 240 horses as promised..only around 110 hp..!!
A very disappointed Mikael took the SAAB engine out and replaced the very advanced/effective paddle wheel with a brand new 1977 Evinrude..2.4 liter V-6.. 200 hp outboard.
With the right power the cat was flying and Mikael scored his first overall win in the famous Roslagsloppet the same year..
Here is a picture and some reading in Swedish..

Thank you Jørgen Jørgensen for the picture and good memories.
I rigged this Clerici with a Ray Nydahl foot throttle and complete steering kit Ray sent me to Sweden.

I was at the race in Dayton Ohio when they introduced that motor, at our stock outboard nationals.
They ran an exhibition with two of those on boats against D or E mod hydros and they gave them a half a lap Headstart and they passed them coming out of the first turn!
I was blown away!
Killer motor/class.I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
