TOPIC: 1961 EVINRUDE STARFLITE III Service Manual??

Friends,

IF you've seen "my find" on the main forum of a 1961 LONE STAR FLEETWOOD DELUXE, you will know that I will soon have an Evinrude STARFLITE III in 75HP & a 1961 trailer to "go through" during the restoration of the whole rig.

Do any of the members of this forum have a FACTORY SERVICE MANUAL for the Starflite III? - IF you do OR you know of a source to purchase a copy, please respond by PM, as all that I can find is a "generic manual" that covers many sorts of OB motors.

Also, do any of you know how much that the Starflite III weighs??

THANKS, tex

boatspecs.iboats.com/Evinrude__50524__75hp__1961/bpe/57e10414 says 220 lbs.

With charging 248 lbs? web.archive.org/web/20051215123209fw_/http://www.old-omc.de/e_1961/seite_22_23.jpg

d\silver-bay,

THANK YOU.

Even with, hull, fuel, BIG battery, OB & trailer, it appears that I'm about four hundred pounds under FOMOCO's "maximum tow weight" for the Mercury.
