    US MEMBER PAY BY CHECK

    At a swap meet some years back when I was new to the hobbby, I spotted an outboard under the tailgate that looked Kiekhaefer and
    bought it for a modest sum. It turned out to be a 1940 Sea King single
    with a few problems. Resolving those problems gave me an education
    in prewar Kiekhaefers.
    At a Suter meet several years later a member exhibited restored examples of 1940 Sea King, Wizared WA2 and Mercury K1…the three
    entry level models. Attending club meets can provide both information
    and inspiration.
    Good Luck with your new find
