I made a little video for you, maybe it`s interesting...

And i have a new Gull since August, a 1962 102plus. It`s not in a good, but also not in a bad condition. I bought it in the netherlands for a good price, in germany you wouldn`t find junk for ...

Thats a very interesting boat in your video. But it looks also much older then our boat. And it has frames, our boat has the cicular tube and its seamed/ crimped.

Hello everybody,

I think i have to tell you what happens after the recovery of the engine. It stood in my workshop. I didn`t found a good boat for using the Seagull. Until this summer. We got a "Schottel Schaluppe", a 3,5m log steel rescue boat, build in the 60`s at the river Rhein in germany. I ...

And how you can be sure that there is no sand inside the sensitive areas? I think that masking wiht tape is not very helpful to do prevetion against the sand...
Sandblasting is a fine technique, but after the job it`s overall and inside the things.

Nice cat. And nice engines

The Clark looks very good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vttwx9wgkc
Thank you for the name of it, Charles.

Yesterday i visited the "Boat Fit Bremen". ( Here you can see some pics: http://www.boatfit.de/template_boat_en.php?mainnav=1&subnav=1_5&galerie=true&start=0&kategorie=Boatfit%202012 )
And i saw some interesting things...

The first one is a Selva with a jet:

Today i called the seller. But he didn`t accept my offer. So we can close this tread now...

Oh no, i don`t do it by my own... I only knew some peoples, who did some positive experience at their cars.

You can also look here to see some deliverables: http://www.youtube.com/user/MangoldTrockeneis

Maybe it looks better after a dry ice blasting, if they didn`t sanded it to much...

That`s a real duck hunting engine...

Okay, thank you for your replys. I`ll do my offer to him after the auction ends, but it`ll be much less money :wink:

But here you can see, how he get`s his opinion of the price: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Ausenbordmotor-Seagull-Oldtimer-Raritat-/140919441074?pt=Motorboote&hash=item20cf7406b2 This guy ...

That`s a good idea. Sometimes i already took a look to engines in the UK. It`s only the hunter-gatherer- symptom

The last days i found this one on ebay: http://www.ebay.de/itm/150998149934?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

The seller told me the engine code: http://www.saving-old-seagulls.co.uk/i_d_your_seagull/i_d_your_seagull.php?EngineNum=TC52396

I like the 102`s, and this one looks ok ...

If i remember, i can measure the old impeller for you... It lays safe and dry in a cabinet, waiting for hard times
