Royalty Class Motor Victoria and Vokins tug Major out on the tidal Thames on a St Pancras Cruising Club run from Limehouse to the Tidal Barrier and back again.
Victoria is powered by a Lister JP2, 22 HP at 1200 rpm
Major is powered by a Gardner 6L3, 118bhp at 1000rpm? but James has a special bit of string... what power does 1400rpm give?
Like the Tug and the Gardner engine. I went on the St Pancras Cruising club trip Limehouse to Teddington a couple of years ago and remember seeing "Major" then.
