    Thanks for the replies and diagram! I didn’t realize Gale even had
    a neutral shift outboard until I happened by one. The only external
    difference I seen between the power heads on the 1947 vs. the
    1953 was the magneto plate mounting. The later has the four screws
    and retainer, and the prior must clamp on the power head.
    In looking at the diagram, the neutral clutch seems similar to
    the Merc Mk 5/6.
    Perhaps it will be an interesting project.
    Thanks for the help!

    Prepare to be boarded!
