Lee's Mills Steamboat Meet

(1/2) > >>

steamer:
Had a great time at the meet, and had my batteries charged a bit.

Saw this honey of a launch engine.....You'll be in love with this one Jo.

Herreshoff..2.5 x 5 with slip eccentric....all bronze.

b.lindsey:
Lovely engine Dave, not sure it has enough studs for Jo though  :lolb:

Bill

steamer:
She'll overlook it....LOL


















steamer:
Bonus points for the those who figure out the slip eccentric design.......very slick....and simple

Dave

Maryak:
Turn the handwheel roughly 900

Simple yes, clever yes, not my idea of safe with that handwheel flanging around near your feet, hands or any overhanging body parts.

IMHO the engine needs to be stopped before going near it for reversing. On a good day watch where you step, on a not so good day OH $H1T.

Best Regards
Bob
