Johnson Outboards was a US based manufacturer of outboard motors. ==History== The original company to make Johnson inboard motors and outboard motors was the Johnson Brothers Motor Company of Terre Haute, Indiana, United States. A few years after the Johnson brothers' factory in Terre Haute was destroyed by a tornado in March 1913, the brothers relocated to South Bend, Indiana and then Waukegan, Illinois. The company was first acquired by Outboard Marine Corporation (OMC) in 1935. OMC filed for bankruptcy 22 December 2000. It is owned since 2001 by the Canadian Bombardier Recreational Products. Bombardier Recreational Products no longer sells outboards under the Johnson brand since 2007, as they have moved all sales entirely to Evinrude Outboard Motors. They support existing Johnson outboard motors through servicing and parts. Evinrude also provides information about the year of manufacture for vintage Johnson motors, if the model number and serial number can be provided. Owner's manuals for vintage Johnson outboard motors can be acquired from the Ken Cook Company, www.outboardbooks.com. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Johnson Outboards」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
