The Old Outboard Book

Antique outboard motors share the allure of vintage cars and are relatively affordable. Once restored, they can be used for casual boating, fishing, waterskiing, or even racing.

This book traces the history of the outboard motor from the late 19th century through the 1960s, the start of the modern outboard era. The "Big List" chapter covers nearly every motor ever made, including Caille, Champion, Evinrude, Flambeau, Johnson, Martin, Mercury, Scott-Atwater, and Waterwitch.

It also provides comprehensive oil-mix and spark plug charts for most vintage outboards. The third edition extends coverage to U.S. and Canadian motors up to the mid-1970s and includes Australian and British motors. Updated pricing, rarity guides, and complete model-year lists make this an essential reference for enthusiasts of historic outboard motors.
