Title: Stern paddle wheel steamer for Low $
Post by: ShadetreeMotorcycle on September 20, 2021, 12:20:43 pm

I stumbled on this YouTube video of a guy that wanted to build a steam powered boat with his young son for very low cost.
  He found a boat on ebay that appears to be scratch built using a Mamod SP2 stationary engine for power. It is a simple non scale design, but I thought it was kind on neat as most any overhead type stationary engine could be used and also easily removed.
  The photos of the boat start at about 55 seconds into the video.
  Thought I would share.
