I'm looking for any information about and possible identification of a marine engine from the wreck of an early 20th century launch. The launch was constructed around 1905-1907 and wrecked 1915-1917. According to archival records, she reportedly had a 2-cylinder, 50-hp kerosene engine but I don't know the manufacturer or type. Attached are photos that I took of the engine (the wreck is in very shallow water). Any information would be greatly appreciated. The engine measures roughly 8ft 10in in length as seen in the first photo.
