I have decided to combine the January and February show photos from now on. So some of these photos you may have seen before but most are new. There was a fairly accurate count of engines, models, tractors, cars & trucks, motorcycles & scooters done at our february show only. Below are the results. Once you click on the URL address scroll down to the second section for Marines engines. We don't seem to have a lot of marine engine collectors to display their engines but there seems to be a few more each year. I'm hopping more will come to the show in the future. Can anyone tell me who manufactured the wooden boat and it's engine?. I didn't get to talk with the owner. The Caille out board is just setting on the boat for display.
Antique Engines = 1,071
Model engines = 200
Antique Tractors = 836
Antique cars & Trucks = 117
Antique Motorcycles & Scooters = 29
Thank you Patsy Russell for doing all the counts.

John,
Great job with the photos! Quite a show. I corrected the URL above so the link should work.
Do you mean this boat? It looks like it could be a Ferro engine and a Mullins boat. |

Thank's for the compliment on the photos and correcting the URL. I forgot to check the URL after I cut and pasted it. That is the boat I was talking about and the engine is a Ferro at least thats what the engine tag was. The boat I wasn't sure about. |

Johnny,
I'm certainly not sure about the boat, but they did build steel hull boats with wood frames, gunwale, etc like that one.
There is a lot of Mullins information available in you are interested in researching it: catalogs, literature, restored boats, etc. |
