Re: Elliott Bay triple expansion engine
Looks like you are well on the way to another beautifully built engine. How well do the EB triples perform ? Looks like they should do well when built properly. Keep up the good work, love the vids.

Re: Elliott Bay triple expansion engine
The first engine has not yet been fitted in the boat, I wish it had so I can get some feed back.

Re: Elliott Bay triple expansion engine
Jack,
If you don't mind, what are the overall dimensions of this engine L X W X H??
Mounting dimensions?
I looked on Elliot Bay's site and I did not see it.
Thanks, Ron
