Steam project
I picked up a Krick (West Germany) steam ship the other day. She is an ABS hull 36" long with a twin vertical cylinder engine powered off butane. I'd always wanted a steam ship since I"d first saw African Queen. In fact I found her on ebay while searching for a queen kit, and planed to convert one to steam. Seems the value in this kit is not the kit at all but the engine. I've had several offers already to buy the motor and keep the hull..haha. If anyone has any experiance in steam engines I'd need some help for sure.

saw your clip on forum. I have a Krick Victoria with the same engine. No instructions came with it but have ran it for 30 min. on one charge.

RE: Steam project
shelden3,
I suppose another offer for the engine would be a waste of both our time, huh? I'd even come and get it! Might even bring icecream?? Tickets to the 'Big Mac' rodeo???

(I hate it when I beg like that...)
Good luck!
