New motor....
« on: January 18, 2018, 04:28:12 PM »
Check this out !!  Was in one of my customers garage and spotted this old hand driven motor in a corner.   Even came with a parts list.  I couldn’t resist and had to buy it.  It’s called a man-u-troll out of Jacksonville Florida and is dated 2/15/64. pump the handle up and down and the prop spins one way. To go backwards turn it around flip the handle over and pump away.   I thought it would be better than having a paddle in the boat for emergencies.... though I will probably keep the paddle in the boat also.

Before anyone else asks, I want to know the top speed on GPS, maybe some prop modifications for better performance?.     Actually kinda cool, used for small boats instead of oars I suspect?

That's pretty cool !
Do you have a small aluminum boat to try it on ?
Maybe make a jack plate to lift it and do some cupping on prop.

I can honestly say, I have never seen one of those before. Very unusual.
