"Mark,

The Gale Buccaneer was made by Outboard Marine (maker of Johnson Evinrude) as a "private brand" motor to be sold to sporting goods and hardware store wholesalers. They first came out in 1950. They were a "budget" engine made to be sold outside the normal distribution market.

If you give me the model number, I can tell you what year it is.

There is additional information and a price guide in Peter Hunn's book THE OLD OUTBOARD BOOK.
