Although the size is somewhat smaller than a Louisiana bateaux, the sound is about right.

Bill Schaller's posted video shows a tiny brass teapot used to prime the cylinder. Any idea where one might obtain one?

I received a response from the boat owner. He tells me he bought the tiny teapot at a flea market for 25 cents and would like to get another.
I would be interested in what everyone uses to fill the prime cup and limit fire risk.
Thanks!!

This it the standard primer bottle in its holder on the Blaxland Chapman Greyhound 6\8Hp.
It has a steel ball in the nozzle that seals out atmosphere when upright/ also reduces the flow rate when filling the tiny funnel on the priming cock.
