ive been a member of i boats for some time , they know me qiute well over there for my hobbie work , ive been told by top forum leaders on the site that my JOHNSONATOR is the first outboard ever biult with a radiator in the world , if this is the case i would appreciate opinions from members what should we do with this motor once prooved it self , put it for auction or put it in the Maritime museum , cause then New Zealand can keep it there for good , as this can go down in the history books .Any sugestions ?

Durban, how'd the sea trials go on your new air cooled engine design? ------------- "Nothing is so strong as gentleness, nothing so gentle as real strength." St. Francis de Sales |

Thanks for your interest Norseman : there are people world wide asking me this, as this is the first outboard motor in the World ever to be built with this design , the Americans are also waiting on i boats .com , yes for me it would be a great pleasure to see it run on the water , it starts & runs for hours on end bench tests , there has been numerous conversions done to this motor to make it possible to run , as i do not have a boat ready to test it at this stage , iam busy modifying a little boat to test it in the river , this will take some time , however the results will be posted http://forums.iboats.com/johnson-evinrude-outboards/durbans-johnsonator-outboard-motors-590435.html |
