Hi, I have the serial number rangers for Evinrude outboards from 1929-1960 in The Old Outboard Book by Peter Hunn, if you find the serial number the years for them according to the book are:
1929 11,616-13,926
1930 13,927-15,782
1931 15,783-9,990
1932 16,991-17889
1933 20,000-20,930
1934 20,931-22,534
1935 22,535-25,096
1936 25,097-29,174
1937 29,175-33,434
1938 33.435-39,155
1939 39,156-43,565
1940 43,566-47,252
1941-1944 there was no outboards made by Evinrude according to the book.
1945 47,253-48,748
1946 48,749-55,511
1947 55,156-68,210
1948 68,211-80,312
1949 80,313-95,877
I don’t think it would go into the 1950s or later because they switched to a recoil starter around mid 1940s or so if I remember correctly.

does the shafts being made of brass mean it was made for salt water?
For the most part, motors from this time, with brass lower units, are considered salt water motors. Your motor looks to be in unusually nice original condition and many here would feel preserving the original decals would give it more historical value than replace them, if they are even available.

am I missing something I have checked some other pictures, and I might be missing a magneto or coil did they make them without one or built into the top. I see the spark plug wire coming out of the top of the motor going to the plug. I do have compression I haven’t checked for spark yet. Thank
you
Coil, points, and condenser are under the flywheel.
Prepare to be boarded!
