    Reverse the "54" and you get "45"–the year it was built, 1945, five horsepower. They were made by Gale Products Division of OMC. Gale division produced motosr for mail-order stores like Wards and Speigle. The magneto is the same as Johnson motors of the era, but that’s about all. Evinrude did make a similar model, but they are nowhere near as plentiful as the Gales. Simple but tough motors that refuse to die.
