    I started it with a free 10 hp QD , then got a 4hp, a 3.9 Merc (sorry folks) then a 25$ FD (15 hp) onto a 7.5…to a 5.5.. a 50$jw and a 20$ JW
    and yesterday it happened again…hapiness …. a $50 1966 9.5hp (mdl 9622a) for 50$

    I need a garage sale…. to store these motors 😆 😆

    ho… forgot…. I run a 2005 75 ETEC on the only boat I have 🙂

    Haha! Know the feeling. I got my first boat engine, the ’25 wickström (50$) last october.. Since then, I’ve acquired:

    1951 Johnson Seahorse HD-26 2.5hp 30 $
    1960 British Seagull Century 4 hp, 40$
    1961 Johnson Seahorse JW-17 Free!
    1963 Evinrude Sportwin 10 hp 20 $
    1966 Evinrude Yachtwin 3 hp 10$
    1967 British Seagull Century Plus 70$, but got a 1963 Homelite XL-12 on the deal for free
    1967 Chrysler 9.2 hp 40$

    Feels like I’ve been quite lucky with getting cheap ones 😀
