For the gear heads...

Successful launch of my steamboat Nyitra! Or Steam Launch (SL) Nyitra to be proper:
 


Update 8/28/2016:

The Engine used in SL Nyitra, a "Toledo" sir of course. 114 years old! A 1902 Toledo Steam Carriage Engine. Twin 3" bore  by 4" stroke, rated at 6HP with 10 times the torque of an equivalent diesel engine of the same horsepower.
I'm definitely a Toledo fan boy - can you tell by my shirt? :


For the gear heads, Nyitra's Drive Train:
