Thanks! I've added this link to my site. The JEGO page also has a
link to www.old-omc.de which is replete with old catalogs.

The 1965 Evinrude engine catalog;

Shows a Sweet '16 with white gunwales -- did boats ever come from
the factory like this?

I was born in '61, and they stopped using the gale name around then,
so at least I'm not an old fart in one part of my life!

P.S.
I've never tried to make a list of engine model numbers, but
I do note them on my boat models list when people send them to me:
