That's great, web site helped a lot too.<br />Other than long shaft what is different about the "sail version" for these engines compaired to others?<br /><br />I picked up 5 engines in varous conditions this weekend, all above plus a 9.9 Yamaha, all long shafts, not sure what I really bought.

The sail versions were long shaft as standard. <br /><br />They had a rectifier fitted giving a DC supply for battery charging, others may have had a lighting coil for, well, lights but you would need to refer to the owners handbook to see how to wire them up. A charging kit is or was availble for these though.<br /><br />They had a different prop, bigger diameter but smaller pitch, to make them more suited to pushing displacement hulls rather than light hulls at high speed For example a standard 1984 6hp or 8hp came with 8 1/2" X 9" prop while the sail versions came with a 9 1/4" X 6 1/2" one.<br /><br />The sail versions have an exhaust outlet above the prop, between the cavitation plates, so that the gasses are not drawn into the prop when going astern causing loss of thrust.<br /><br />The E'rude sail versions wre called Yachtwin but I can't remember what the Johnsons were called
