When I was 12 years old, in 1959, us kids at the family cabin used to ski double behind my neighbor’s 1958 18HP on a decked Alumacraft model F (rated for 16 HP max).

Hahaha. The best old outboard yet. This exact outboard model, was one of my first. It looks like you got a sweet deal. You might think you’re sick, but it looks like it would have been sicker to pass this one up. LOL.
ENJOY!
