Re: Rose launch by Selway Fisher
Dear Ian, Thank you for your reaction, I'm sorry I reply this late. It has been some time since I've been on the forums. You wrote that this is your second boat from Selway Fisher.

Rose launch by Selway Fisher
Dear forum, At the moment I am building a steam launch. The boiler and machine are already done. The boat itself is also present (it’s actually a rowboat), but it still needs a lot of work.

The engine is made without any plans or castings. The hul...
