I share your predilection for ship's engines - and could kick myself somewhere that I missed a small Carette ship's at an auction in Germany...

That's a beauty also. Is this one yours too?  If it is, I missed the posting here.

That's a wonderful one (and I followed it while it was on sale..., but beyond my price range).
No, it was a smaller version, slightly rusty, but a would have been a nice restoration object...

I missed it, because I was involved in getting the rigg of my small sailing yacht up. A proper reason to miss the auction of a ship's engine, I'd say... ::)
