The boat got a varnish similar to my Steamlaunch "Syrinx" - it`s the same class, but I expext some more speed than the last one. Tomorrow the KACIO steam engine will arrive.
In the following days it will take some time to prepare the participation at "Faszination Modellbau" in Friedrichshafen, Lake Constance from 3. to 5. October,

I can`t post some new pictures - may be reason is in my laptop or different? I will see, whether it is possibel to post this text now.

The boat: Fore and aft whaledecks are finished, they can removed in seconds. I wanted to use an old Regner boiler with two flametubes and also return tubes, but i found them leaky. Perhaps it`s possible to repair the leaks with silver solder.
I expect a nearly new KACIO engine in the next days. The exact position of the engine will be the following position of the boiler. I will try again posting the new pictures.

Hi Derek,

I will order a chinese Kacio, bore 14 mm, stroke 15 mm, nearly new from a private owner in Germany. The advantage - a little bit cheaper and no waiting period.
I was busy in the last week, there are some advantage about the boat.
