Here is a builder I haven't run into before. Maybe his engines were steam rather than gasolene?

This Company is in my data base with a question mark,indicating no substantial data as to them mfgring gasoline or diesel marine engines. The
propeller in the letterhead and ads I have seen
indicates they were a propeller mfgr.They also had a drydock in New york and repaired and refurbished larger vesels. I have also seen articles of their mfgr of medium size triple expansion steam marine engs. Not much info on this company as yet !

I know of two Sullivan engines existing today. One is at the Smithsonian in the USCG tender Oak engine room exhibit. The other is still operating in the steam Yacht Cangarda. Both are side valve triples. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23onKedCh68
