Scott Appi at Lauderdale Canal Saturday mornings.

Hi Tassie,

Welcome to our wonderful worldwide forum for model boat fanatics often of post working age.

You may have heard that internal combustion engines have been largely banned from all public waters in the UK (and indeed much of Europe and the US) in recent years on noise, wildlife protection and environmental grounds.

What is more this trend has been accelerated over the past couple of decades by the ready availability of powerful brushless electric motors - which frequently out- perform ic engines without their many problems.

Thus you may be seeking a very rare ( as well as expensive)item here.

Good luck in your search, but I would suggest you consider more readily available electric- powered model boat kit or plan as a first project.

With best wishes. Dr John Fowler. Leeds and Bradford. MBC 😁😁

Ebay.Co.Uk or ebay.de is not an option?You could also try the Dutch Modelboat site
Modelbouwforum.Nl
Give in the Dutch term gevraagd witch means “looking for”
And mention in English that you are looking for an OS 7.5 outboard engine. All Dutch speak and understand English
Good luck with the search

Does anyone have an OS or other brand, OUTBOARD nitro engine that they will never use and might be able to sell it to me? About 7.5 cc??
I'm in Tasmania so PayPal would suit me very well 😊
I understand the the Postage will hurt me, but that is what it is.☹️
Cheers Lads
Mike
