Anybody have a Semple V marine steam engine for sale ? I would be interested in a non finished, or finished one , even plans; to fit into for my whale boat hull.
What happen to Semple ? I've stuck a dead end.
Thank
Bill

Hi Bill, I know someone with an original unmachined casting kit, as well as someone with a complete plant (vft-40 boiler and rebuilt engine). If you PM me your info I will pass it along to them.

Re: Semple V engine needed
Fred Semple died in 1998 apparently, and I've not seen any new engines for a long time. His sons were handling the business during the summer for a while...Steam Fit wrote:Anybody have a Semple V marine steam engine for sale ?
