Hello To All,

Have a friend that just picked up a sizzler which has been sitting around outside for about 6 years. This boat has a 115hp Johnson\Evinrude Turbojet motor in it.
The serial number on boat stern is: 0BGA0073H495.... I'm assuming the 95 and the end of the serial is the date of production of this unit.
He is looking for any and all info for this boat. Has got it started and it runs but the previous owner stated that it had started to run hot.. Hasn't been touched in 6 years.
I have looked around the web and found this site in the hopes that someone here may direct me to some information in regards to service manuals for motor and actual boat manuals,etc......
Any help would be very much appreciated, Thank you..Click image for larger version Name: 100_1213 (Medium).JPG Views: 1 Size: 101.9 KB ID: 94970

you need the model number to get the age of the motor, seeing as it has been sitting around for a long time, there is a few things to check before running it, buy a genuine manual for it, not a cheap CD or a generic manual, replace the water pump, check thermostats, replace gear oil, rebuild the carbs and make sure the oil system is working OK.
