post a decade later: a silver century plus
.
.
Ebb has an unused (I must have started it up one time!)
off the shelf, new, but parked inside in shop corners over the
decades. Bought it in the UK and had it shipped over,
in the '70s. Anyway, all these years -- time for a new owner...
According to Wikipedia, Chillington Marine is defunct, but there
is a conservator keeping the name and spare parts alive.
Sheridan Marine http://www.britishseagull.co.uk/index.php
Letter code WSPCL--384M2. Weight, 50lbs. (old bath scale)
Clamp to non-cavitation plate above prop 23.25". Picture of a
1974 model: http://britishseagullparts.com/outboards/silver.htm
Seagulls are designed to push displacement hulls, The SCP is
a perfect match for the 26' A/C. When cleaned up, mine will
look new like the one in the photo. No stains, no chips in the
painted gas can. Brilliant piece of history, classic touch for
your restored Commander or Ariel.
Two stroke engines can be run anywhere two strokes are not
strictly forbidden, like fresh water lakes.

willie's photo above does look like a Silver Century. But we need
the letter code on the other side to identify the individual motor.
