New project: Steamdriven speedboat

<< < (2/7) > >>

Hankwilliams:
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.

Hankwilliams:
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.

Thomas
