Sea King model 492

Would anyone know where to find a correct decal for this motor? I’ve looked everywhere I know and have struck out.

Thanks,
Phil Curry

Your Sea King is a LOT like an Evinrude, with minor exceptions- rope sheave, and serial # ID plate…Here’s an Evinrude decal set.

It was based on the Fleetwin I believe and is an 8.5hp. I think the carb cover may be different between the 2 as well. I found a pic surfing the net of a really faded one. Although my tank is bare of decals if you look in the right light you can see it says evinrude across the back and fleetwin on the side. I suspect the tank was replaced at some point with the evinrude tank. The old faded decal I saw definetely said Sea King and I’m betting there is no reproduction available. If I cant find one I’m just gonna leave it without. Thanks for looking though.

I could definitely work with that. The other one I saw was from an aomci post as well and is different than that one but more difficult to make out. I have a Giant Twin, a 1935 4HP, and a 1934 2.2 HP and they all had their decals so I was after one for the 8.5. The next question I have is would anyone recommend me to someone who could help me replicate that decal?
