The 1910 built "Number boats" from the Thousand Islands had a 4 cylinder, 30 hp Jencick Engine.

Google: Joseph Leyare, The Great St. Lawrence Boat Builder.
Page down to the section on Number Boats.

What were the air horns all about? Early PCV's? If so, not sure why they are facing forward.

Just noticed this thread...
Stephen Jencick built beautiful motors (a 1909 ad said "built for past three years", but he must've started earlier) but apparently lost money---Bkcy in 1911, rose out of bkcy as Jencick Motor Cptn, but sank again, final Bkcy 1914...
Referred to as "wholly marine" prior to 1911 Bkcy (altho listed in some auto eqpmt directories under "gasoline automobile motor m'f'rs" since at least Fall of 1907)he apparently tried to expand into land vehicles, a Jan 1914 ad listing a line of engines for "Commercial vehicles, Fire engines, Automobiles"(up to 61/4x83/4, a little large for a land vehicle).
There was something about his trying to ship eqpmt or machinery to the Nott Fire Engine Co, but being persuaded to desist by the Sheriff, presumably under the 1914 Bkcy...
I have a final note he continued inventing and designing, acquiring later auto engine related patents, but I kept no details.
Another one of the early groundbreaking engine people, rapidly slipping away into obscurity...
Ahh--another note: more Jencick info in A E Ludens autobiography???
