Mercury with serial number 1434223.<br /><br />Might be 1961 9.8hp, can anyone confirm this.<br /><br />There are some photos at the link below.<br /><br /> http://members.ozemail.com.au/~lsfaust/merc.html <br /><br />Thanks Rob.
rob- my merc book only goes back to 1963 for the 9.8...it says the starting serial# for '63 was 1474328 so for your serial number,1961 is pretty close. bob
