Is there a 1st and 2nd issue rivercraft?

Can anyone give me any information on the rivercraft.

I have the nicest looking rivercraft you could find that's not in a box. It has the blue motor with an orange cover, complete with all the paperwork etc, so I just wanted a little more info on the rivercraft.

My questions are:

When was the rivercraft released? and Are the 2 different motor colours 2 different releases released at 2 different periods or where they the same releases with just different coloured motors.
Any info would be appreciated.

i think but wouldnt swear to it but i think what you have is the way it came with a 2 tone motor always baffled me back in the day , others here will probably know better

Thanks Jim, like you has always baffled me as to why one had an orange motor with a blue cover and the other was the blue motor with the orange cover.
