Brief excerpt from Peter Hunn's book: "Officially, the earliest Spinaways (1911) were called Speedaways, originating from the Speedaway Boat Motor Company, Freeport, Illinois." In short, Hoefer Manufacturing Company, 3 years later, owned Speedaway and renamed it Spinaway. Their last year of production was 1924. For more information and history right now: Check out Peter Hunn's book for many more details. And be sure to check Arlan Carter's book that is specifically on rowboat motors when it comes out. .
