      I bought my first antique outboard it’s a 1954 Goodyear Seabee.
      I have looked all over the internet for a picture of the outboard and I am Unable to find one the motor Has a horrible rustoleum paint job . I have a starter for it and it works on the motor but I am not sure is the correct for the motor it looks like it’s for a gale buccaneer. Did Seabee used the same starter ? Thanks

        Seabees were made by Gale.

                The Gale Products devision of OMC built a lot of outboards – many parts are interchangeable. They diferentiated between the models by switching fuel tanks, rewind starters, decals, colors, and motor covers. Early Sea Bees favored blue and Yellow. A model number is essential to get it right. These are just a couple of the models Gale built in ’54

                    Welcome aboard, Nomorejunk! As you can see, there is lots of information here. You’ll have the SeaBee looking original by Spring.

                      Then it is a 45GG9014A (5S10) A popular model. Here is the parts layout. . . 😀

                      I could only find one Sea Bee picture. I’m not sure of the year or Horse Power. FRANK ?

                        A 1954 5hp Sea Bee could also be a 025-3573 (5D10G) with a neutral clutch. This is why I asked for a model number.
