A special section just for steam engines and boilers, as without these you may as well fit a sail.

Thanks for that.
Looks as though it could be just what I'm after.
Unfortunately I depart for Nepal on Wednesday and won't be back until early April, so won't be able really to pursue in the meantime.
Many thanks
Ian

there is a suitable boiler for sale on the SBA website. It needs finishing but the main pressure vessel is there. It is the same as i just fitted in my boat. Makes lots of steam and I also use a ST5a.
Boilers for sale come along if you wait there may be none for a year then 3 or 4 within a short time.

That is a GREAT price for that boiler! You couldn't even source the materials for that price!
