G'day i have a question on a motor called a British anzani "super single" outboard motor. is anyone out there familiar with these engines and know what brand and type of carbie was used? E.g carb model #. Thanks

Wow I can't belive you can still buy them - a 5hp for £455 - new and unused - I am REALLY tempted.

I had heard of them vaguely - by some bizarre coincidence someone once gave me a carrying handle for one used by the commandos during the war!!!

Remember it will be measured at the head not the prop if its that old. You should be able to get a new 4HP for around £500 - and I know where I would put my money (on the one that you can get parts for and still has a warranty!).
