Are you using the copper under the gas tank to transfer heat to the gas tank from the boiler .was there a reason for taking the pump of the engine, It should go well they are a nice engine, I still have not got round to using mine, but have a hull,

I think this is one of the nicest steam launches i have ever seen.  I love the attention to detail and the carefull weathering, especially around the steering housing and the little workbench. 

Fantastic model Bernhard ,looking forward to seeing her get her bottom wet!
