I am a new proud owner of Mercury Thunderbold 1500 and I'm trying to find out the specs and model year. Is there a database somewhere on the web? It was made in Canada and the serial number is 7038448.<br /><br />Thanks very much

Hi elcay, welcome to iboats!!<br /><br />The listing is unclear but it looks like a 1974 model.<br /><br /> http://www.maxrules.com/merc_contents.html <br /><br />Aldo
