I don't know if any are still around but I have always wanted to hear one of those run! Can you imagine trying to tune 6 Schebler carbs to perform evenly?

That is a fantastic picture! I am fortunate to own a 1903 Leighton high speed launch that was bought new by my Great Grand Father. The original Lieghton four cylinder was sadly scraped in 1925. A Palmer little husky replaced it. I am allwas looking for new Leighton info and pictures. If any one knows of any thing I would appreciate hearing about it.I am also in contact with two surviving grand children of Herbert Jackson Leighton who are also interested.thank you, Ed Mitchell

It would be nice if you could post a picture of your launch.
