Hi,
Just purchased a 1990 17ft" Boston Whaler and having a hell of a time tracking down the model number or year of the 2 stroke 70hp Mercury it came with.
Serial Number placard on the transom bracket is worn away. Can't find anything on a block plug or the flame arrestor cover. Took a look at NADA and doesn't look like Mercury made a 70hp 2 stroke in 1990-1993, so I'm assuming it's a 1986-1989. Possibly 70ELO or 70ELPO? Does anyone know by looking at it? Or another location I can look for a serial number?
Grateful for any help, thanks in advance!
