Great pictures as always Lars.
I was a co-owner of a Johnson dealership in Homestead, Florida for 10 years from 1974 to 1985. Cycle Marine Suzuki. We were the first Suzuki outboard dealer in Dade county. Also a Suzuki motorcycle dealer and a mariner outboard dealer and well craft boats. Had a nice little business going for about 10 years. Eventually sold it and went into Marine trucking long distance hauling of boats. Been involved with the Marine industry since I was a kid. Great place to grow up Florida. Best always Amberjack. RIP, David Gilmour, a great friend and a legend in the Miami boat business.
Looks to be at least 15' longQuote:

When they started to run this lower unit I sold my 49in Mercury rig and went back to running a 44in motor on my old McCall. Just could not keep up with the OMCs in EP or SE anymore.
The 1975 didn't come with a rear swept back skeg. I know the 1976 didn't also. I had a 1976, it's now on display at Seaway Marine. It's a brand new 1976 short shaft E motor. Never run.

swept skeg for vee bottom
straight for tunnels
Correct..the swept back skeg came after and the old style was replaced when you purchased a new spare part gearcase. (Old style skeg was no longer available)Quote:

Probably..but for sure a smaller thin skeg is faster..:)Quote:
