I really admire most everything made by Carette. I am delighted to add this Carette marine engine to my small collection.

Wonderful Carette! Congratulations!

One of these ship's engines would really be a nice addition to my own collection!

don't remember exactly - a very nice one and another good catch...

I watched your video on YT this weekend.

This is a wonderful engine in original condition.

It was really a treat to see it running.

Congratulations on adding this beauty to your collection.
