The serial number can help you determine the year of your engine. Your serial number or model number can be found on the engine’s mid-section. Often this plate is also marked with the engine’s year too.
Why did Evinrude fail?
Evinrude wasn’t in the 300 HP + space and that hurt them. They didn’t have the same dealer network that Mercury or Yamaha did and didn’t own as many transoms, making it tough out of the gate. Evinrude had legacy Etec engines alongside the new G2 engines for too long.
