Re: British Seagull Outboard

love the love/hate relationship. These old engines will still be running when all the newer 2 cycle outboards are gone and buried.
Me, a lover.

Well, I use about 5 litres of petrol mix annually between the Seagull and a 3.5hp Johnson. How does this compare with the amount of dino juice that leaks naturally into the Caribbean each year.

Anyway I just love the smell of 2 stroke in the morning :-)

I want one. Next best thing to a steam driven launch I can think of.
