I've started putting scans up in the gallery from the 1977 Mercury Outboard Catalogue.
This brochure features outboards from 4-40 H.P.
Look for a couple of scans to go up every couple of days in the gallery and in vintage boating forum. :thumb:
Enjoy! :)

There's no doubt the market is soft.
Just another sign of the times - Sea Ray is reducing it's work force by 350 jobs.

Here are a few pics from a few seasons back, of my new 2006 25 H.P. Merc 2-Stroke.
I guess this would be one of the last of the breed.
It's a great motor. :)
Here are a few pics of one of my old gals.
It's a 1955 Johnson 5.5.
I'll have to get some better pics this season. :)
These are a few pics when my buddy and his son were up for the weekend.
His son wanted to go for a ride, so I got him to help me with the tiller. :)
Here's a few vintage classic Donzi pics from the 1970 Mercruiser Brochure.
They're also posted in the gallery which the rest of the brochure.
Enjoy! :)
