      Picked up a "Barn Find " 1926 A-25 today. It has a strange attachment on the propeller. Anybody have an idea what it might be or any info. I am thinking some type of cutter, weeds, fishing line or??? Or a part of something else. Any ideas.

        I had one of those on a Waterwitch too and that question came up not too long ago and somebody posted this (maybe Mumbles or Tubs judging from the color of the text).

          Whow! That’s it Steve. I guess I missed that post. Don’t know why anyone would need one on a A Johnson or any other small hp. motor, but advertising hype likely played a huge part in their success ( or failure ) All I need now is the disc attachment and I will be sure to catch the BIG ones 😉

            That’s mine in the picture.
            I can remember where I got it now.
            Someone on eBay had like 50 of them
            asking $20.00 each but I never did see
            him sell any. I suspect if you decided
            to speed up the disc was gone if you
            didn’t take it off. I’ve seen several
            clips on Pals and Rangers.

            Even saw one on a Cub once.

            Here is another brand. (Go Slow)
            Looks like they would stay on better.

              Uh… yeah. Because all of those motors were uncontrollably fast, right?
