thank youPappy said:You can go to marineengine.com then select the model year/horsepower then select the accessory catalog. The kits will be in there.
i can't find a complete kit. Model number is E15RCOB. Does this mean it is a true 15hp and not the 9.9. I was told it was a 9.9 when I got itevansjoem said:thank youPappy said:You can go to marineengine.com then select the model year/horsepower then select the accessory catalog.

would these parts inner change within the 1985 model. I am gonna keep it manual start for a while.rotus623 said:Yes it is a true 15hp.
The hardest thing you will have to do is covert from pullstart to electric start. It will require an engine wire harness, starter, starter solenoid and battery wiring. The shifting is easy on those older evinrudes because the shift linkage just hooks up to the mechanical shifter on the starboard side.
If you were like a lot of guys, you would start out with just a remote kill switch, a set of controls and steering wheel/console and just have the guy in the back pull start her when you're ready to roll. Then when you get to where you're fishin you can flick the kill switch on the dash.
should I build an aluminum console or fiberglass. Which one would be the lightest overall?evansjoem said:would these parts inner change within the 1985 model. I am gonna keep it manual start for a while.rotus623 said:Yes it is a true 15hp.

i cannot sell cause it was my wife's grandfathers boat. So I was gonna weld up a light weight console here is some ideasrotus623 said:Doh, I forgot those motors don't have the steering tube on them from the factory.
To convert that motor to entirely remote control would cost you a mini fortune!!
I was in the same predicament as you a few months back. After looking at the work involved, I ended up selling my motor and boat separately and got a flat bottom tunneled hull with remote control (bigger) engine for about a thousand dollars out of pocket. Thats a real nice rig you got, but I think a console in it will really choke you out up there. May want to put it on CL for more than you think you can sell it for and see what happens. Just my .02.

there were a lot of impurities in the aluminum. So all my good welds will be ground down and then a thin layer of filler will be put on. I'm thinking of a paint scheme to do. I think I will make it stand out with a semi gloss hand sanded with a loomis fish skeleton but done myself as a bass. I have an air brush that I might have to bust outevansjoem said:tig welding weave actionevansjoem said:Started making side console. Face is cut and have cardboard templates made
