Should say on the title...some of the guys here can tell you by the serial number...post it up...
 
i found it posted online forsale, in the description says year 1981, but i want to be sure cause i thought it looks like 90's ? maybe not sure.

It's a 25" SHAFT, doesn't fit my boat ?! does it have to be only 20" shaft?
 
I cant see the engine in person cause its posted online. Just asking if someone might know the average year by looking at the Model design.

but now i found its 25"shaft and i need a 20"
 
Well for future reference this is the location of the model and serial number on those V6 outboards (port side).

Think '83 was the first year the VRO came out but on certain engines, then all after '84.
If no evidence of a VRO pump hung on the port side of the engine or if the cowl dosen't have a VRO sticker, it may be 82 and older.
 
Just other question, When i buy a OUTBOARD, does it need a tittle?

How i see people selling a boat without little? can they navigate like that?

I got a paper of this boat i bought but i havent change this under my name yet. i still need to go do it but i never done this before.

Also what could happen if someone sell me a engine without any paper? i ask once for an outboard forsale online and it was cheap without paper

let me know thanks
 
Depends on your state.
reels state requires a title on outboards in order to collect taxes but strangely dosen't require them on trailers.
 
Here is Georgia's requirements.
Boat title: bill of sale with former owners name, signature, address, HID.
If current and from same state, just send in the previous owners registration card and filled out transfer and renewal slip in your name and address with appropiate amount of money.
Out of state or new: bill of sale and application for new registration (new to this state or new).
No HID number, salvaged or homemade: apply for inspection by DNR, if approved they will affix HID number.
No bill of sale, no registration possible.

Trailers must have mfrs number and bill of sale and be checked by nearest police station annex (that actually does inspections). Then go to tag office for tag registration. Homemade trailers must apply for state issued homemade trailer number then do all of the above, except bill of sale.

Outboard motors: They don't care
 
I was checking the rules on Florida State but its a little confusing reading all that.

it doesnt say anything about outboard engines but what happens if someone sell me a stolen motor ?
im confuse about regulations, The title is only for the BOAT HULL and TRAILER? Engine dont need title or serial number?

Where online do i check the engine MODEL SERIAL to see the year of the engine? for a mercury
 
0G886363 This is the Mercury 200hp damage outboard i have in the boat, i need to know year of this thing. by the way where do i find this at online?
 
No titles on boat engines in FLORIDA. That there is an early 80's 150 low output powerhead mated up to a late 80's mid section and cowlings. VRO started mid year of 85 on the V6's and in 85 they put it on the new looper V4's and V8's. The smaller engines got VRO in the late 80's and around 91 or so 40HP+ had it. That powerhead I would say could be a 77-84. In 85 alot of the 150's got the bubble back exhaust cover. Also that engine only has the 9 amp flywheel, around 85 the 35 amp became standard on the V6's and SEADRIVES. The fact that it is a 25" shaft isn't a big deal, if you had a 25" transom then a 20" shaft would be a challenge. You can get a jackplate and mount that 25" shaft on your 20" transom.
 
There you go......

I was going to say that it is painted and marked like my 1989 Evinrude 200's I had on my GW 25.

Sounds like a good one to pass on.

Looks like the OG series started in 1994.
This site only goes to 1996, apparently that motor is newer than a 1997.

Mercury has determined it is absolutely not needed to know the year of the motor, therefore when ordering a part, use the model/serial number to get parts.
As for selling the black beast, just list the model/serial number and horsepower and verbally tell it is about a 1997.
