What year and model is this Johnson Seahorse?

[srukke]

I am buying a motor that is identical to the larger motor towards the middle of the picture of Ray Maloney's Seahorse collection photo. I can't figure out which model it is though and the serial number puts it in the WWII era. Serial on the rope sheath is 482555. The motor looks older than this though. The seller says it has no model number on the rope sheath. Any help is appreciated.

Older Johnson

Don't know my older Johnsons, but my dad had a 22 HP Elto (Evinrude Light Twin) on his Wecco Clipper that looked similar. I recall he bought the boat in 1938 or 39.

Johnson

That middle one appears to be a K-65 circa early 1930's motor or similar. Alternate fire, 9.2 hp. Just a guess.
