I am restoring a 30 ft 1935 cruiser built in victoria british columbia to original condition. THE ORIGINAL REGISTRATION states the original engine was gasolne and 87bhp. I need help in determining what the original power might have been or at least a reasonable replacement of the right vintage. |

Do you know the name of the builder? If you know the launching date you could go back to the newspapers around that time and see if there was a mention of the boat or the launching. The engine was sometimes specified. Check with BC Archives in case there are business records from the builder. I tried to contact you about another option, but you have no email and there are no private messages on this site. |
