    I have a chance to pick up a Sea King 3 HP outboard. Not sure the model or year. I wondered what the availability of parts and motor diagrams might be for this? I know Gale made Sea King, and Gale was part of OMC. Anyone have experience with Sea Kings?

    Well, you might say I have some Gale experience.  How many do you want?  Lessee, I think I have about 12 of them, more or less.  The 3hp Gale Buccaneers were my special interest focus. Gale division made motors for a flock of different stores, Montgomery Ward’s Sea King being one of them.  They all were basically the same motors with varying colors, decals etc.  I have all Buccaneer-branded years from 1956 thru 1963.
