Yep just what the title says. Looked it up Model# 60173S ---- what does the "S" stand for?
S/N E16322
The motor needs A LOT OF REPAIR ie. previous owner tore into it and left it that way ---- lucky me
 
Post a picture of the motor including the cowling.----------------50 HP would be a 2 cylinder and 60 HP would be a 3 cylinder ( 1971 I think. )
 
Ya know some days you just have to use a flashlight. ------- It's a 50hp 1971. The 60173S is actually 50173S. That 5 sure looked like a 6.
Like I said earlier I got it from a guy that started to ------- do ------- some repairs and abandoned it half way through --- so this will be fun ------ I think ----. Just got the parts booklet and I'm waiting for the repair manual now. Should be a good little job for the winter months.
This will be going onto a 1960 TollyCraft 16' that I am currently refurbishing. The transom was rotted out but the hull was spared. Some cosmetic repairs on the interior and a full gage and steering replacement ---- didn't come with any.
