Hi Dave, and a big Ayrshire welcome to the forum.
You'll find this forum a busy, friendly and interesting one, with none of the ballyhoo you find on some forums.
Steam is the magic word here, and we can talk about it all day and never get tired. 
So don't be shy. We're all the same here, so post away.
Sandman.

Two bolts from underneath countersunk so the heads were flush they screw into two bronze bushes silver soldered to the base of the boiler.

now that's beautiful! I can see you have your own style of mounting engines and boilers - I like that, but it's crying for a boat

I had it a 48" herring drifter for about 10 years and decided to pull it out and sell the boat

So are you planning on acquiring another to fulfill the purpose of those wonderful engines?

Re: What do you think of this one?Welcome,
I'm not the newbie now...
That's a very nice little piece there, not sure about a boat, but I agree it looks like it needs to drive SOMETHING.
