    From the way the gas tank and the engine is mounted I would think this would be for an inboard application.  What do you think?  Anyone have any paper work on this engine.  I’ve looked at several Elgin sites, but have been unable to find any pictures of this engine.  Thanks for all your help.

    I wouldn’t think it would have been a factory made “inboard”,
    if they didn’t start making Elgin’s until 1946.
    Was anyone wanting inboard motors that late in the game?
    Perhaps a small powerplant to run a pump, etc?

     

    Prepare to be boarded!
