Boiler IDI am posting this on behalf of a member at my local model enginering club.
Would anybody be able to identify this boat boiler?

... hmm double barrel boiler with cast iron ends.
Could be an older Stuart marine boiler.
Could we have some more pic please, details.

THIS BOILER WAS STILL PRESENT IN STUART 1983 CATALOGUE. THE END PLATES ARE NOT CASTINGS BUT PLATE STAMPINGS.

Many thanks STEAMPROPULSION for this info. I will pass it onto the club member who has the boiler.
Now has anyone any idea of the make of the engine?

The engine is scratchbuilt I am sure

Certainly looks like its home built from the pics but I've not seen it 'in the flesh'.

The GMES club member was very pleased to have the boiler identified - thanks again
