Another Kiwi

Post by opua » Fri May 17, 2013 10:03 pm

Hi all,

I'm a transplanted Kiwi resident in Port Townsend, Washington state and quite close to British Columbia.
A long time member of the NW steam society though without either a boat or the engine for it. Running a boatbuilding business full time leaves little for much else unfortunately.
Hoping to retire soon will allow time for the long delayed steam engine project, most recently with a EB triple in mind having looked seriously at this several years ago but was discouraged by the early problems that surfaced, meanwhile I've followed Peter Cowie's and Maltelec's revisions and changes with interest and may go back to a more careful look.
Glad to be associated with such a good group
Regards,
Paul Zeusche

Welcome Paul, there's plenty to keep us amused on here. Just wish I could find the time to kick-start mine, as well.
Retirement is about doing what floats your boat!
