Interesting prop shaft & rudder arrangement on a Gold Cup racing boat. A WWI Liberty aircraft engine in a period wooden boat.

Awesome looking TS-25 or TS-26 GarWood 500 HP Liberty. What was the GarWood boat's name? A very rare engine indeed. What is awesome about at TS engine is that there are 4 carbs, 2 on the outside of each bank. A pain to keep running correctly as each carb feeds 3 cylinders. Cheers, Lew |

Sorry Lew - I didn't think to photograph the transom: but I can call and ask if you want. |
