Thank you for your very kind remark. It's an own-design ultra-simple steam boat, made from balsa, with a fibre-glass skin. It is based around a Mamod type steam engine, from Tony Green Steam Models, that I have modified a little. The 36" LOA steam boat and engine mods will will appear in Model Boats magazine as a plan feature, later in 2011. I have made my own brass flywheel, steam oil lubricator, and oil separator on the lathe. This was a quick first run to see if all was well. More soon.
It will never fly !
