[QUOTE="Boat2fast, post: 346201, member: 13358"] In a small motor like that, reverse gear doesn't provide much...'reverse'. The ones that spin around give full power in reverse. They also don't have shift mechanisms so they are nice, light, easy-to-carry engines. The OMC 3-4hp engines built from the 40s to the 90s have 2 cylinders so they also have the advantage of being smooth running and light...and powerful in reverse. [/QUOTE]
