Great vid showing how simple the seagull is. Quality engineering. No wonder they last so long. I have a few myself and wish i had a marston as nice as yours. Well done very enjoyable.😂❤
Thanks! I have a 102 Seagull 6.5 HP in need of rebuilding, sat up for 10 years in leaky carport shed that leaked and got corroded. Will not turn over, Trying to figure out how to disassemble and get her running. Pushed my 26 Ft McCune Sloop at 6 knots no problem! Sad to be so jammed up, cannot get the flywheel off at this point. I welcome any suggestions or help. I wished that the tape went to the part of starting the motor! Also, narration would have been great....Thanks for making the effort, gives me hope that I can possibly dismantle the SeaGull motor and repair it.
Great video! Thank you! But 2 remarks: 1. some narrative during the work (comments), please; 2. the operator to show what is going on (nothing to be done "behind the scene" or behind some big objects ). Especially - electric part;
The impeller is on the drive tube, can't see what you are having trouble with. You are obviously very confused about seagulls or drunk . What is standing back 50 feet supposed to mean?
The point was could it be assembled in 20 minutes,just a bit of fun. Why do people take everything so seriously. At no point did I say this is how you must assemble a forty plus
"I am picking up a screwdriver and putting this screw in with it" "I am now picking up a spanner and doing up this bolt" Is that what you mean by commentary........
Excellent educational video demonstrating the simplicity and serviceability of a British Seagull! This Yankee really enjoyed watching.
I have the same 40 with a three blade prop from 1955. This video was so informative.

Nice speed run. This took a lot of mystery out of seagulls so I feel better about buying one for my sailboat :) Cheers!
Very good instuctional video, may i ask why it was a rushed assembly.
How does the mount and that narrow 90 “L rod” remain affixed ? Mines slides right out and falls away ?
Great video guys.
Nicely put together

Was it a dry fit of the head ..I would always use rtv silcone and a little on the crankcase end and crankcase itself
The later QB models used RTV, but earlier ones with an annealed copper gasket had nothing from factory.
Did you ever turn the piston the right way round??
Awesome
👌
This is my forty plus, there are many forty plus like this, but this one is mine.
Thanks for standing back firty feet to obscure the details, and SKIPPING STEPS, as in the impeller.

@@HorsleyLandy88 Firty, Cockney for 30 twit! Not very good camera work is what he's saying, too far back and shaking like you've got the dt's.
awesome video...bit long video but it's worth it.. also I have 6 British Seagull 4 BHP. let me know if anyone interested...!!
👍👍 !!!!!!!
Ocupo carburador y el electronico ... no da chispa
Sorry, my mistake, wrong video!!
Sorry but .. i never rush when assembling so this is a no from me.

You need a dry slap 🤣
