In two weeks we'll be headed to Mystic. Bob Legnon, Keith Felder, Jamie Hurry and I plan to attend. I'll have the Union with me. |

We will be there in spirit but not body regrettably.
Its a great show and one We hate to miss but age creeps up on you and there is nothing you can do but hang in there. Our door is always open to you folks. Regards, Dick and Barbara Day |

I and Bob Price will be there with his boat and maybe some cargo space to bring stuff back.
This time , I'm taking the Amtrak train so that I can carry-on some cast iron on the way back.
The border crossing might get interesting.
I'm looking forward to it.

Mr. Durgee there wasn't a camera ban...
I have quite a few pics and a couple of vids. However I am off to the "left coast" for the week so it will be a bit before they are posted.
There are a few you need to look at to assist figuring out who the actual manufacturer was.
Several others took pics too so eventually there should be a bunch posted. |

Can someone help me identify who owns the small white launch with the gray motor? I would like to contact the individual.
Kind regards,
Motorcanoe |

Surprisingly small output shaft on that Union twin. Great photos! What are the 4 or 5 very square looking engines in a row? |

The last 5 pics are a model or something.
It will run but is obviously not complete.
I suspect hand made
I think the flywheel is 4 or 5 inches |

Thanks for the pictures Ernie, good memories. The Union is 8.96hp, but it called for a 21" propeller and a 1 1/4" shaft. There was quite a bit of inertia with the rotating mass, hitting something with that large prop something would have to give. |

Have to say, the "Faultless" is true to her name, right down to the period looking hose clamps and batteries. That kind of authenticity adds a lot to the overall impression I think.
There are the engines I was referring to:
