Just curious as to what makes a commercial model different from a standard model. Mine is model#55EL79C. Is that a commercial model?
 
One of the big differences with the commercial models is they had a slightly different ignition system that would allow them to burn substandard fuel (minimum 67 octane) where the average outboard requires at least 86 octane.

Additionally, they usually had lower gears than others with similar horsepower.

Those are two differences that immediately come to mind...
