There's a guy in craigslist.nh in Allenstown who sells old Johnson and Evinrude outboards for aprox $250-750, size 2-10-hp., 1955-1974 He has about 30 different motors in stock, and he replaces the needed parts with new parts made by OMC.

His name is either Johnny Johnson, or Dr. Evinrude ...... cannot remember?

Just go to craigslist.nh, boats, and do a search for Allenstown to see photos. For $300, I got a 1967 Johnson 3 1/2-hp 20" shaft for a sailboat, and it beats the pants off a 2015 Honda 3 1/2-hp four stroke. OIl ration is 25:1, and it runs great on blue Wal-Mart 2-stroke Tech oil for $3.94/quart which will easily last all summer.

Old 2-strokes can last forever if they were made by OMC.

Probably, if he sold these in California, he would go to jail ...... but here in New Hampshire, it's a different story ..... Live Free or Die! What the heck.....even the NH Marine Patrol runs with 200-hp two-strokes?
