Hi can I have your number please?

Hi Jamie, pm sent

Any idea what it weighs? I'm after a 4 stroke but at that price I'm very tempted!

Edit: Should have read properly. It's tiller. I need one on remotes! Bargain for someone.

[steve66]

Cheers, it weighs approx 50kgs

[steve66]

Remotes can be fitted to it

[uncle al]

a very small tweck and you have a 40hp!

Yes, just a blanking plate at the back of the carb isnt it?

Is it? I've got a 30 and want (need ) a 40. Heard many stories. What's the real one?

True, but I'd also need an electric start/charging kit!

Hi just checked on an exploded diagram, its not as easy to convert as rumoured, from a brief look reeds and carburettor are different according to a mariner parts list.
