Windermere boat Museum

These images were taken during a visit to the Lake district boat museum some years back, I have been scanning a lot of my old films and came across these as part of a set that I will use in full at some point, For the moment however these two images show one of histories great boats used to set world water speed records….

    Terrific images, Nigel. The engine print is very HR Giger-ish. 🙂

        When I see the engine I’m sure that this thing makes some noise 🙂
