Pictures from France
A fellow Steamboater called Pascal from France has asked me to post a link to some pictures on his website: http://steamvideopascal.blogspot.com/ He also has a blog with many pictures: http://balades-pascal.blogspot.com/

comment on the pictures
Well alrighty then...Yeah I like them pictures- a lot. In fact I seen a steam engine in the blog that got me all excited that I had to copy it to folder in my puter. Maybe I will have to build one like it myself..I'd be asking about that engine picture if the guy can take/answer a question in English? . . on an aside-- My own engine build is coming along nicely, I having fun with it. I ended up decided to build small steam launch of 18 foot or so..After extensive reading and studying on the subject I see now that I'd have addressed all my humble ambitions if I had built a gas engine launch - hence I go forward with simple steamboat project but saving some ambition for a second boat to be gasoline powered...Specifically a 2 stroke water cooled vertical single cylinder inboard engine- that I will build.. . I am not posting pictures of my steam engine build here or anywhere because every place I have mentioned it I get guys coming forward to tell me how to do my own project. I dont care for that, definately dont appreciate unsolicited advice..I have to think things through for myself..Figuring stuff out is the fun part of it...Know what I mean? For some reason its worse with steam engines ,theres at least a few very snobby, arrogant ,know-it-all fellows in the steam fraternity, I dont get that kind of treatment when I show guns that I built from scratch..
