Yes, the Merc looks to be a long shaft, the Evinrude is a short shaft, looks like the boat transom is meant for a short/standard/15″ shaft engine. You are so fortunate to have all the wiring for the Evinrude, most folks don’t take the time to remove it from the boat and keep it with its engine. The Merc looks to be a mid to late 70s model, I’m just guessing this by the lower case mercury script on the cowl…

I was excited to see the wiring harness, and solenoid box as well.
I’m guessing if I get it working, I can also throw the 1957 Evinrude electric
start on the boat, plug it in to the harness, “push start”, and “Go”.

Prepare to be boarded!
