Wtb Johnson/ Evinrude offshore 1
Thought I would put this out there to see if anyone has a pair of mid 80's V8 offshore 1 outboards collecting dust and rust. I would bring them up to modern spec with direct fuel injection and such. Thanks for stopping by.

Hi Affromax, I am asking this question because most people do not understand the difference between the Offshore 1 and the Evinrude/Johnson V8. Are you familiar with the 3.5 liter engines? Also the lower units that come on these engines are different than the normal lower. They are not designed for everyday use near the docks. The majority of parts for these engines are not available anymore and most not compatible with V8 motor components. They are also only truly happy when they are run flat out. They certainly draw a lot of attention when you start them at the dock because of the large cloud they emit. The two engines in the picture are mine. One is a standard rotation motor and one is a counter rotation motor. The are twin plug cylinder head, carburetor, and twin pinion shiftable lowers ( when the motor is off and start in gear). I have converted the prop shaft to Mercury prop design. I kept snapping the original shafts and it gives more options for props.
Instigators exactly right and understands the rarity of the outboards. That is because most were used for racing and met their fate on the course.
Thanks Charger70

The Craig’s list motors have been for sale for a while. A lot of goodies there. I believe he started at 12,000.000
