Hi Bob,
That's a ripper.
One of my goals was to fit my old boat with a steam engine.
At the boat shed I moored my boat there was a.steam boat there similar to the one you posted.
I got to talk to the owner.
He built the motor himself...
His problem was getting good coal.
By the time I finished talking to him I felt I had learn all there was to selecting good coal.
He would go out in in and always blew his whistle...so cool.
After talking to him I realised steam and drift wood was never going to happen.
