BRITANNIA OUTBOARDSBy the 1950s Marino Products had a range of products catering for agriculture,
horticulture and leisure. Here is an advertisement that nicely sums up the
range in
late 1949:-
Marino introduced the
British Britannia Outboard, possibly
because it lost agency for
Johnson.
I do not know why this happened, but I suspect the recreational
market for outboards had 'exploded' by this time, and Johnson needed
wider exposure. I simply do not know.
