Hello all (From NY) I am having what I call the boat blues <:( Over the winter I built a steam tug boat kit.. After months of hard work the engine it calls for just don't have enough grunt. So I purchased a Kirk Victoria... I am now having trouble finding a affordable Power pant for her. I have checked all over the web and seen so many. I have 800.00 US dollars for one.
Please if anyone knows of some sites I can search please post it for me. I need to be in the water soon. Thanks to all
