    How about a mud motor section?

    Jon Boat Rudders

    Same problem here. Have trolled out of a lot of flat bottom aluminum boats. Trolling is much improved in windy conditions when motor is moved to front. Lots easier to pull in wind, rather than push. Most transmon mount motors heads can be reversed.

The company was sold to brunswick corporation in 1962 at which time they decided to do a color change. So if you see a white mercury its a safe bet that it was...

    White mercury

    Bet some of the members have seen a white mercury. Owned one on a 1959 cutter boat with cable steering. Learned my lesson early on. Anyone else own a white mercury. This was own my first outfit and was a lesson well earned. The cutter had fins on it like cars of that time period.
