Oliver Outboard Adjustable Hat

Fishermen go fast to get there, then slow to catch them. Oliver Corporations catered to the needs of these fishermen with their innovative outboard boat motor design. Located in Battlecreek, Michigan, the Oliver Corporation was a major manufacturer of industrial and farm equipment with an impressive international distribution network. Originating in 1924, the business was soon booming as farmers eagerly purchased their Oliver tractors. The corporation continued to introduce innovative lines of tractors, including diesel engines then gasoline and eventually a compact utility tractor. In 1954, the Oliver Corporation expanded its markets and acquired Chris Craft’s outboard boat motors tooling, intent on modernizing and renovating the motor design. The “J” Challenger and “K” Commander were released in 1955, a hot-ticket item on the market because of Oliver’s established reputation as a reputable industrial manufacturer. Although the Oliver Corporation was purchased by Perkins Ltd. based out of Peterborough, England, the legendary Oliver motors continue to live on in the boats of fishermen and tractors of farmers.
