Good day:

The seller is having trouble giving me an definitive answer on this motor. Can any of you Merc experts narrow it down to a year? Also the HP?

Thank you in advance. Appreciate the help.

1965 is the decal paint scheme year. Either a 110 or a 60 hard to tell for me between those two models.

Ask him to check and see what 'name' is cast onto the starboard side of the block.
I think one will be 'COMET' and one will be 'LIGHTNING', but I'm not sure since I just went out and checked what I believe is a 9.8 and it has Lightning cast onto the block, but has Comet above it in white paint stamp or decal??
Real helpful aren't I. Gag

It does strongly resemble a 1965 6hp I had a long time back.
