[QUOTE="sixgun86, post: 230690, member: 5345"] x2 on what Rich said. There will be a tag with model code on the midsection. Google that and it will tell you the year. Sometimes if you pull the cowl it might have it written or stamped inside. I had a Merc 5hp and put a higher pitch prop and didn't really notice much of a difference. Depending on how much weight you have in the boat makes a big difference on a motor that size. Not much you could do to hop it up. Be happy you aren't using a trolling motor or sell it come spring/summer and get something bigger. [/QUOTE]
