    A revolutionary outboard. They combined the 1934 Evinrude Sportsman’s read valves, the pressurized fuel tank of the 1940 Johnson SD-10, and Evinrude’s 1937 gearshift patents and "hooded power" concept to change how Johnson motors were built. It was the start what we Antique Outboard Motor Club members call "Classic Outboards". That problematic cork filter bowl gasket was later replaced by one of neoprene rubber. . . 🙂
