seagulls in the movies ??

Its not a film, Just a low budget Ozzie TV show, I didn't spot it before, I'm normally half asleep after watching it, it seems that they have so many Seagulls in Oz that they use them as ornaments now.

They have a few more now.. my shipment has arrived with half a dozen more....

Watched "The Man Who Lost his Head" starring Martin Clunes the other evening. Set in New Zealand there was a scene with a boat in the background with an older Mercury 100hp or so on a boat and in the foreground a Seagull outboard lying across a table. It had a 5 blade Prop couldn't tell the year without looking again but likely late 60's. It gets a good few seconds or stardom.

That's the one, interesting there is a camshaft on the bench too, with only 2 strokes in sight

There are two Mercs. They must be a matched pair as the one on the transom looks a blur counter rotation. I would use the right handed (Clockwise) as a single set up preference given the choice. Maybe the one dumped in the grass had typical rusted drive shaft that plagued them?
