In the early 1960's, Outboard Marine Corperation manufactured an engine for use in Cushman motor scooters. It was an aluminum, single-cylinder, overhead valve engine that produced nine horsepower. Cushman used it only in their Eagle models, which had a two speed transmission. It was said to drive the Eagle at speeds of around 60 miles per hour. A two cylinder version was also produced for Cushman's three- and four-wheeled industrial vehicles.

[edit] Depression
My mother used to tell us that her family was supported thru the depression by dividends on Outboard Marine stock that their late father had left. I'd be curious to know more about the doings of the company during the 30's. Was it doing better than average? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.71.69.110 (talk) 19:14, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
