Vintage 1929 Boucher Polly - Wog Model Speedboat Steam Outboard Motor
Item History & Price
Vintage 1929 Boucher model speedboat with steam powered opposed twin cylinder model outboard motor.The boat is 23" long, 8-1/4"wide, and about 3-1/2" deep(from top of cowl to bottom of boat). It's in very good overall condition with no major splits or breaks and is complete with its aluminum deck, 3 air scoops, rudder, boiler, fuel tray, (which has some rust), and of course the twin cylinder outboard, no stand.Maybe 50% of the original gold w/black border "Polly-Wog" decals are gone sh...owing a royal blue color that I assume was the original color.There are some streaks in the paint, mainly at the left rear side and transom.The finish on the bottom of the boat is in fair condition with areas showing the lighter color blue paint.Also on the bottom of the boat there are what I would say looks like fine stress cracks running with the grain, nothing damaged or deep, probably just from age.The motor is the Boucher oscillating opposed twin steam driven outboard engine, 1/2" bore, 1/2"stroke, appx.4"wide and 6" high.spins freely, probably works but I haven't tested it.It's been sitting in an old collection for years so it's dirty.Being sold as-is with No Reserve so please ask questions.Check my other auctions for more hobby related items, vintage model ignition engines, CO2 engines, old model airplane kits, gas-powered tether cars, parts, etc..Thanks for looking
