Still the one mystery. That 60D yamaha motor. It was never sold in Canada or the US. If? it is the 2 cylinder and if? it is the same motor as the 60 hp 2 cylinder Mariner/Yamaha, [55 hp at the prop] how the heck did they get it to push a T boat 72 and 75 mph? And even more impressive push a 12 foot tunnel over 80 mph. I have now got 3 of them apart. They are a very simple motor and every part is over built and heavy. The pocket on the head is like two ice cubes end to end.
The yamaha appears to be the same as the US sold Mariner models.
Here are two examples.
