I think that the Kermath board has been read but what your looking for is the answer to the questions, after 2 hours of searching I for one still don't have the answers. Photos of Early kermath small engs were not published in their ads so far as i can find. If researched by indexes 1913 and earlier have to be accessed from Morton manufacturing co. the sole distributor of Kermath marine engs, after 1914 Kermath and Morton both advertised !
Probably teens catalog would be the answer if someone has any.
A big help would be a better set of photos of your engine a front,rear and each side focused well of the entire eng and a readable tag shot as well.
Some of the different models of these old timers take awhile for the info to come foreward !

John S from LA has one like it that used to be mine. John?
John also has a twin and a 4 cylinder of the same style.
I have ads for it somewhere. I will try to find them if John can't help. |

Any ad's or pictures would greatly help. There is a Marine Engine poster on ebay at the moment, and it has a picture of this engine in the poster. Anyone here have a picture of that engine? Again, Thanks for all your help. |
