2cylinder seagull?
I saw an advertisement from someone who wants to sell a 2 cylinder seagull.
Dit not get pictures or a serialnumber yet.
But is that possible?
So far I just saw single-cylinder Seagulls.

Re: 2cylinder seagull?
Yes they did make a twin cyl seagull outboard motor. "Very Rare" I tried to find a picture to post up but i cant find anything. But the answer to your question is yes. Good luck and hope you get it.
Re: 2cylinder seagull?
Could you buy it please and bring it onto this forum?

Re: 2cylinder seagull?
The generic term for an old black outboard with a fuel tank on top seems to be "Seagull" when the details of this one appear don't be suprised if it's got a BMB or a Riptide rope sheave.
Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

Imagine one of these turning up on fleebay!
Re: 2cylinder seagull?
Next week I will get pictures and I'll send them here. Hopefully reasonable price.
Re: 2cylinder seagull?
unfortunately, it is NOT a seagull.
It is a twin cylinder but it has no name on it.
Attached some unclear pictures.
I think it is a real classic but even the owner does not know the brand.
It just has BR 54 on the bracket and BR 33 on the cylinder.
Who knows eventually?
I am so curious that I want to visit the adress but it takes a 2 hours ride and I don't know if it's worth it.
Sorry for the expectations I waked.

Re: 2cylinder seagull?
The Marston Twin is a good looking motor from about 20 meters away, when you get closer you realise what a big lump it is, 10 hp that weighs more than 90 lbs without any fuel!

Re: 2cylinder seagull?
OK, but now the question: what is it and is it interesting?
Re: 2cylinder seagull?
Looks like a Britannia Light Twin to me.

Re: 2cylinder seagull?
I think you are right Keith, early Britannia had the finned exhaust, a bit hard to see in the pics though, needs a flash or some light!
Is there a similar US engine? Whatever it is, looks nice.
