Jack Craib's Rowboat Motor Information Site Spinaway |
Brief excerpt from Peter Hunn's book: "Officially, the earliest Spinaways (1911) were called Speedaways, originating from the Speedaway Boat Motor Company, Freeport, Illinois." Then the Hoefer Manufacturing Company, 3 years later, owned Speedaway and renamed it Spinaway. Their last year of Spinaway outboard production was 1924. Chester Hoefer graduated from MIT in 1906. The Spinaway company, like the Caille company, made many badge motors. |
