I too really like the engine well and the sunken (not really a good work to use in reference to a boat) condenser.

Looking very, very seaworthy there Capt. Kenneth!

Benchmark,
I refer to your post of 23 November on this topic. The fourth photo that you presented in your initial post in this thread, a photo of the lines of the hull against a tesselated grey paved background, reminded me very strongly of my visit to Roskilde in 1977 when I visited the Viking Museum located there. There they had a viking long boat mounted such that one could see the lines of the craft. I thought that the lines of your new vessel in your photo were reminiscent of those of the long boat that I recalled seeing so many years ago now.
I am looking forward to following this build as I suspect it will result in a very elegant and graceful craft.
Well done Kenneth.
Steamboat Willie.

Some of you may remember this project. Well, despite the windy and generally chilly weather today, i took her on her first maiden water tests at the pond and our very own Bernhard was there to make this quick video.

Details of the build can be seen earlier in the thread.
