Fred doesn't have his straw Merc hat
Since 1925, about 150 different racing outboards have been made.
Looking for more pictures I found this cut out article from Gazzetta dello Sport dated Thursday 10 October 1974 about the sad loss of Cesare Scotti at the 6Hrs Paris
The second picture is Renato in Boretto po Italy if I remember well

what is that 3 cyl engine with the bendix looking injection?
Fred Hauenstein's 3 cylinder prototype Merc that Michael Werner drove in Europe. It was run a couple times in the US, but only 2 or 3 were made. It was a loop charged motor, maybe 49ci. It never went beyond this testing. Victim of one of the downturns in the economic cycle.
