The "not turning flywheel by hand" assertion is interesting. Perhaps a crank was supplied?

My guess would be priming and creating a spark, maybe tripping the ignitor.

Richard, The Rudder-Vol 1 Issue 1 May 1990. What is the connection to Watertown NY? Was the first Rudder issue printed there?? Morris Machine Co. went on to be a pump manufacturer.

The first five Volumes of the Rudder Magazine were published by the Nautical Publishing CO. of Watertown, New York, For John J. Bockee the Sales agent for The St Lawrence River Skiff , canoe & Steam Launch Co.located at the Dey street New York address, Their boats were selling faster than the boat maker in Clayton New York could make them- business was booming-. they were giving out catalogs of sorts and Bockee took it one step further to publish a monthly magazine, I think that the real winning aspect was that Thomas Fleming Day ( The great sailor and boat designer of his day) personaly edited the issues !
