9.8???? wasn't it a 9.9. The only Merc. that I have ever owned was a 7.5. I would put the 7.5 Merc. on the floor of the old Thompson Strip boat and the 5 hp Evinrude on the stern. That way I would usually make it back to the dock. If there was a lot of current on the Miss. river, I would have to put both of them on the back. And once in a while, the Evenrude would take a crap. Just like on the salt, it a good idea to have two motors back there.
Lookin them up on google it said the Mercury 110 was a 9.8 hp. They are an older unit. The newer ones are 9.9 hp. IDK, I'm just goin by what came up when I googled Merc. 110.
