GRUBBS MARINE / OLD MERCS WEBSITE Great for getting those hard to find Merc products

http://www.oldmercs.com/

WARNING - dont go to "www.oldmerc (without the 'S').com its just an advertising scam. If you have a good internet firewall try a look at it otherwise dont.

These guys have some cool stuff and I'm sure there'll be some drooling over the restored vintage outboards. Each has a couple of pics and basic specifications/description. Well worth a look, I'd rate it at 5 outboards out of 5  Grin

Cheers,

Lots to see here, just the thing for that '50s outboard you have laying idle.  Grin

This link was recently introduced to me by our member "Oldenrude". Thank you Michael.

http://www.powercatboat.com/

Warning: It's dead easy to become entirely engulfed in this great website for hours on end. (great for those rainy days)
It has zillions of wonderful photos from yesteryear, plus stories/history, and pics of full restorations. There is also many many hours of hours of video if you search around a little.
You can even watch a 1959 Powercat being booted along at 105mph by a pair of old V6 racing motors! Shocked
Lots of real early OMC, Scott, Chrysler And Mercury pics. Great to see these rare photos are now preserved on the 'net for every one to enjoy.

Below is my dream boat. Kiss
