Hey all,

Been putting this off for a while, but it started to become painfully obvious that roughly a quarter of my engines weren't on the website.....so I've done a massive update, with lots of new pictures, videos and text. Any comments very welcome:

Looking good! I love the pics and vid of the Bowman-Bryant engine. What a find and well worth the long wait for it

Looks great Moose.

(ps: you might want to reload your model dockyard outboard picture as only the top quarter shows)

It looks great, I have gone throught it dozens of times. There is always something interesting.

(I dont really like it when you click on a brand of engine and a new page pops up)

Who's passionate about his site then!

Well done Mr. Mooseman.

Where do you find time for all this? Amazingly well presented personal web site showing great photos that fuel further our passion for this fascinating hobby.

Trevor

Thanks for all the kind word guys!

Please don't feel you have to write any criticism in small letters - all welcome and all taken on-board.

Ranger, do you think forward-back navigation is better? I'm kind of in two minds about it as with my method you can end up with a lot of windows open....

Gil, I'll have a look at the Clyde...seems to be working OK atm, but it needs a better picture anyway.

Trevor, I'm lucky in that I get to enjoy the academic summer break while my kids are home from school.....with the Welsh summer this means I spent a lot of time indoors

I didn't think it could get any better, but you've managed it mate.

Top class, as usual.

It looks great.... the site that sets the standard, as it has been for, well, years! Personally I prefer new windows rather than forward/back. It's easy enough to maximise the one I'm looking at then close it again, and sometimes its handy to have two side by side.
