My friend has just inherited a Thames Tug fitted with a Bassett Lowke eclipse engine linked to a Stuart Turner live steam boiler. (there was a label stuck inside giving this information)
He's asked for my help in valuing and possibly selling.
Knowing absolutely nothing about steamers, I thought it best to ask here for advice, comments etc etc. I would hazard that it possibly hasnt been used for a few years, although the cogs etc turn freely by hand.
The tug is appx 30 inches in length.
