40ft Steamboat Project FIRST STEAM UP

- The first and second steam-up of S.Y. Persistence. Steaming up "on the hard" recommended for every "new" steamboat to work out the bugs while still firmly planted on dry ground. We've solved several issues, and have had several successful steams now.
We've steamed her up several times now using a propane weed burner, a kerosene vaporizing burner, steam atomizing burner, and wood.

lol. it isnt much. its actually a funny story. i went to a construction institute and i kind of got put there at random learning hvac. when i appologised to my teacher for not being very interested he agreed to pass me if i built something in the shop that worked when built so i built a boiler out of copper tubing lying around the shop :) and he passed me lol

Haha! Sounds as good an excuse as any to build a boiler!
+Wesley Harcourt
absolutely lol. i actually plan on starting to upload again soon. ive been on a very long haitus witha lot of projects and hopefully will start putting up some of my other steam stuff on another channel as this was supposed to be my reinacment channel. anyway thank you for the reply and enjoy the boat. i hope to see video of it on the water sometime soon. youll be turning heads with that lovely beast.
If that was mine, I'd put a jump seat right about where your toolbox was and just stare at that engine working. Beautiful machinery!
+Pistol Pete Funny you should say that, my dad is making just the very thing now...
man that thing awesome! can't wait to see her in the water!
Thank you! We're almost there!
Beautiful engine.
Triple expansion?
Love the sound of those engines.
Thank you! It's an original compound built by Doty of Toronto, Canada
Thank you for subscribing!
Would love to hear that nice whistle.
The bell was a bit out of adjustment at the time of the video and was embarrassing to hear. We worked on getting it closer without annoying the neighbors... It sounds MUCH better now... The whistle was made by our friend Bruce Heppler out of a brass artillery shell.
Ah I see that makes sense, I' thinking of making an artillery shell whistle myself, shouldn't be to hard
really nice maschine ;-)
The safety glass around the crank area is probably a really good idea, but it really hurts the aesthetic doesn't it?
i can't wait to see this vessel in the water.
Thank you! We are burning with anticipation!!
need to put it into Lake Tahoe to check her out.
tandem compound we'd like to but the marinas want your first born child, and your first born's first born, for the monthly dock fee. We'll be keeping her in the California Delta.
Very impressive, is that a stainless steel boiler?
HistoricSteamTV- Thank you! No, it's a boiler built with ASME required grades of carbon steel. The casing is steel painted with silver paint.
