Can someone help me identify year and model?

[samson530]

My mercury 35hp oil injected outboard came off of a bass tracker. It has a red stripe on the outside of motor. 1983-1989 I think from all the postings I found. Starter number is 50-41583

Probably early 80's but not sure.

look at these websites: www.maxrules.com/modelindex.html/ or oldmercs.com under maxrules.com website click Mercury-U.S. Mariner model year guide then arrange by horsepower then choose the horsepower of your engine then scroll down the list till you find the serial number range your engine serial number falls under. Or just Google or use your search engine and type in: how to find the age of my Mercury outboard motor by serial number. Good luck
