Old fishingboat, Hundested hotbulb engine

[@billturner2360]

I'm 47 years old..... American.... and I have never seen or heard of one of these engines until just now seeing this and one other video. Life is fantastic... you can learn something cool and new like this every once in a while that is so impressive ! And yes..... I'm very impressed. I have got to learn more about this engine. Very nice boat as well...... Thanks for sharing this video

[@dieselscience]

Bill, depending on where you live, try to go to an old engine show/swap meet or an old West Texas oil field and find an Ajax engine. I'm on North Dakota and there are some remote oil well sites that still use them.

[@MrBJK63]

Vilken herlig lyd, nostalgi akkurart som i gamle dage.

[@TheOwlGuy777]

What an absolutely beautiful old boat. The sound is just music.

[@hillbilly4christ638]

I could draw a lot of attention on lake Erie with a vessel like this. The coast guard would most likely stop me just to get a look at it. So cool. I come back to this video from time to time. I pray there is never a time where these engines are outlawed. They should be enjoyed for generations to come.

[@granskare]

super, and it was great to see you start it up and sail with it and then shut the engine down...fabulous :)

[@Neighbour_Al]

Such a clean engine! Nice to see something so well taken care of.

[@gooseknack]

That sounds absolutely sweet! The best sound? Is at the end, just before he shuts it down..

[@danielradcliff7081]

I love the sound of that engine

[@stefanstig5238]

Vecket himla gött ljud.

[@newsnetuk]

Excellent docking manouver!

[@jodde73]

Hundested, the Rolls of hotbulbs. Beautiful!

det är något med tänd-kula motorer som jag inte kan sätta fingret på. härlig video

[@NJPurling]

There is an old fishing boat, made in my home city in 1896 as a sailing vessel. Today it has a 3 cyl B&W 'Alpha' engine but it's first engine was a Hundested, which it received in the 1920's. As it is much larger than this vessel I am assuming the engine was a two-cylinder unit. Did they use those 'fireworks' in the 1920's as well? I take it that their function is to heat the incoming charge of air and make it easier to start. Similar to a electric glow-plug in effect?

[@sealovers17]

Hello :) From the beginning they use kerosene burner to preheat the engine. Maybe they had other ways to, but this was a simple way the heat it up. Yes you are right it´s the same thing like a glow plug does :)

[@RANDOMMekhaniks]

I love the sound of it!

[@Lucianrider]

Wow amazing!! That Hundestat is a real gem!! Great video...

[@FikretErdeniz]

beautiful sound and boat.

[@jesseamaya4413]

Notice the engine pulses in the camera shake? Can we say torque?

[@janner2121]

Beautiful , but hell that boat shakes when motoring !!

[@iancraig1951]

lovely boat lovely handling

[@stefanlageambecker6077]

vilken härlig maskin!!

[@7822welshsteam]

That sounds fantastic but wouldn't it drive you mad after a while?

[@DranweRagetotem]

My grandpa had a Fishing boat With the same sound, a lot bigger boat tho, Reia whas the name of it. I never forgett the day we wen't on a boat trip, and we slept over in the boat, had this cabin stateroom, 4 beds, 2 on each side one bottom one upper, and a small table you did pull out i never forget that trip, He ment so much to me :'( couldn't even bear to be in the Church :'(

[@kevet1968]

I love memories like that.

[@DranweRagetotem]

Kevin, i missed out on my life between 18 and 23 the years when you are supposed to have fun, because of that, mental Health care center several times because of that, and other stuff something just said BOOM in my brain and my schitzophrenia whas activated, whas diagnosed when i a whas little, but he said it we're no biggie unless something triggered it, and i now, struggle With epilepsy, and schitzophrenia, and Reading problems and disabilities because of it, it took a great hit on my that my grandpa drowned.... i can't bare to see a man that is Close to look like grandpa & hear him talk kevin, happened last week, now i sit in fear it will trigger again.... i don't love memmories like this... i just want him back, and i sit by rehab talking to doctors about , well not a rehab but, talking to specialist's who are specialised in talking to People With problems.

[@RolfRBakke]

Haha, I love how the cameraman shakes in beat with the engine! :-)

[@gundalfthelost1624]

Good lord.. 8 years old but I'm still answering this comment. It's because these engines put out quite a heavy "bass" beat. You can't help but physically respond to the sound.

[@RolfRBakke]

@@gundalfthelost1624 Thanks for the reply!

[@TugboatMatt]

true, my grandfather worked on a old logging boat hauling logs across Lake Superior, he used to sleep beside (on a little bed made from boards) a modified Detroit Diesel 6-71 screaming away at about 2900RPM, with no earplugs. same with me for shooting i grew up shooting guns and the gunshots just dont bother my ears, while other people feal like their heads are poping after each shot. you have a nice day also =) and awsome video.

[@sealovers17]

Thank you :)) Yes we have to take care of our ears because we have only two of them :)) There was a fishingwessel that had a Detroit V12 here for some years ago. It sounds a lot when they speed up the engine, but there was also a lot of power :)) Take care:)

[@michaelhebert7338]

Sounds like a slice of heaven.

[@sealovers17]

I agree :)

[@NJPurling]

Is there a gearbox between the engine & propeller, or is it a direct reverse? Some engines the fuel spray event is changed so the engine re-starts & rotates in the opposite direction.

[@SthealthRaider]

whats that box with the tubing in the beginning??? oil pump?

[@65bug519]

wow looks like he has a variable propeller on there by the way the boat handles, that would be high tech for that time

[@JoachimPetersson]

Underbart ljud. Minns fiskebåtarna i Grekland när dom "tuffa" ut tidigt på morgonen.

[@bearbon2]

Nice video, but could someone tell me why you never see a muffler on these engines? I'd hate to go out fishing with that thing blasting my eardrums for eight hours or longer!

[@sealovers17]

@MrWildstaren1 Dom tillverkas tyvärr inte mer, utan det är elektriskt glödstift eller blåslampa som gäller :) Det borde dock gå att göra egna.... !?

[@gerdschirmacher7352]

Einen schönen Sound hat das Fischerboot. Wo fährt sowas heute noch?

[@gerdschirmacher7352]

Eine schöne Aufnahme mit klasse Sound. Wo war das Aufgenommen?

[@sealovers17]

@MrWildstaren1 Ja, det borde ju gå att ta reda på här på nätet, men jag vet att patronerna innehåller bland annat svavel. Teddens agenturer i Göteborg säljer ju delar till Skandia tändkulor, han kanske har receptet :) Annars är det som sagt glödstift eller blåslampa som gäller. Lycka till.

[@sealovers17]

Tackar :) Kan inte annat än att hålla med dig :) Ha en bra helg:)

[@raedwulfone]

Naw, I bet he gets a headache when he can't go out in that awesome boat !!

[@sealovers17]

@NJPurling Hello :) There is no gearbox, only a clutch between the engine and the shaft. The boat has a variable pitch propeller. Have a nice day and take care :))

[@diioriog]

love the shaking.... :))))

[@JBroezel]

Sounds like a bushdrum - it's like musik to my ears :-)

[@sealovers17]

@Jasminewynja Hejsan :) Det är motorn som gör att kameran skakar i takt. Det är värst i aktern där motorn sitter. Ha det :)

[@doktorjonsson3860]

Song name?

[@marksvermillion]

Almost smacks his head at 1:01. He's got the technique for avoiding it that come from having done it a few times before.

[@sealovers17]

@SthealthRaider Yes That´s the lub system.. One tube/ bearing Have a nice day :)

[@Mercmad]

in my part of the world we haqd big 4 cyl engines in our vessels sometimes 6 or 8 cyl too, but a single cylinder? fantastic and simple a great idea.

[@gustavowichmann4869]

hermoso barco, si mi abuelo contaba que calentaban en las brasas un fierro, y cuando estaba al rojo, se enroscaba rápido antes que se enfrie, y se le daba manilla. arrancaba de inmediato. estupendo haberlo encontrado aquí, Gracias!!!

[@LOrang_Outan]

Beautiful!

[@Windlass123]

What a beauty ...!!!

[@staxter6]

Starting sounds easy, it's shutting them down is the hard part.

[@gundalfthelost1624]

Most boats have a fuel-cut switch for these engines. You cut the fuel and oxygen, the engine dies.

[@blckcloud15253]

The " Harley Davidson " of fishing boats, I love it !

[@viktoriamattsson7172]

När upphörde Hundested att tillverka tändkulemotorn? Är det någon här som vet? Den som finns här i KZbin någonstans är tillverkad 1969.

[@hpenarve]

Viktoria Mattsson Hundested laget den siste motoren tidlig på 90 tallet. I Norge er det en 29 hk som er fra 1987. Min egen motor, en 39 hk, er fra 1970.

[@viktoriamattsson7172]

Hej! Vad kul att någon kunde svara, jag har undrat så länge över hur länge tändkulemotorn hängde med. Har alltid hört och läst att den blev ut konkurrerad av modernare motorer i slutet av 1960 talet.

[@mcstaal]

Hej Viktoria. Sidste motor blev produceret i 1990. (Nr.2512)

[@viktoriamattsson7172]

Hej ! Tack för ditt svar: Nu vet jag mer och jag trodde aldrig att tändkulemotorn hängde med så länge.

[@jrgenpedersen143]

Hundested kvalitet fra Danmark 👍👍.

ingen orsak. Detsamma och morfar min eller hade en båt med en Säffle tänd-kula motor på 40 hk i. Den är nu mera såld.

[@sealovers17]

@granskare Thanks :) This is not my boat, I just know the owner, it´s he who start the engine :) Have a nice weekend. Take care.

[@petejohnson1724]

stunning

[@zabadamyneim]

Mahtava VENE sekä OiKEA kone. ;)

[@sealovers17]

Du har fått ett litet intresse på grund av han och det är inte så illa .D Ha det fint:))

[@DogSpirit1]

Det er simpelthen den bedste lyd der findes..... Kopper udstødningsrøret er rent, ellers var der ikke den gode klang i røret 😀😀😉🙂 💐🌹✨💖✨🌹💐

[@sealovers17]

You know, earlier they never used ear protection in the industry or in engine rooms.. You can get used to bad noise, but now everyone knows that high noise levels will damage your ears. In this case it´s possible to wear ear protection. Have a nice day :))

[@MrWildstaren1]

@sealovers17 Var kan jag köpa dessa patroner som du startar motorn med. Tacksam för någon adress.

[@HeinzvonBeins]

@bearbon2 this thing sounds fucking amazing what more do you want? but ok for 8 hours...

[@gengnepal]

Single cylinder 2 stroke?

[@fiscopaes7415]

Parabéns pelo capricho!!!!

[@massimocorsaro1831]

I love this music

[@sealovers17]

Aha! Då har du lite erfarenhet av tändkulor!? Ha en bra vecka :)

[@Runeakb]

Man skal akta at motoren ikke går meget langt ned i omdrejninger. Så kan den veksle retning lige pludselig :D.

[@VolvoManV8]

nice sound

[@ajez0808]

💙

[@TugboatMatt]

i bet he gets one fell of a headache after a full day on the water.

[@sealovers17]

@jodde73 Yes :)

[@sealovers17]

@MrKjoeller66 Hej. Båten ägdes av en vän till mig och har en Hundested på 39 hk Den hörde hemma i Skagen innan den fick Svensk flagg. Ha det godt :)

[@sealovers17]

@gengnepal Yes :)

[@ernstnaumann6318]

It sounds like a single cylinder but there is some part visible that looks like a six cylinder injection pump.

[@hoost3056]

Ernst Naumann Those lines, I believe, are oil lines not injector lines. Towards the end of the video you can see the main injector line above the lubricator that supplies lubrication at different points on the cylinder and internals. Plus the vibration is the real give away. Every time that piston fired it shakes the entire vessel.

[@sealovers17]

Yes I think you mean the lubrication pumps with integrated oil tank :)

[@sealovers17]

One pump/ pipe for every parts of the engine who needs lubrication

[@svatoplukhavrys9715]

Vot,eto Maslostroj!!!

[@pavelavietor1]

hello love it thanks

[@sealovers17]

Ja, det er et fin lyd :))

något har man ju snappat upp men jag är ingen expert på tändkule motorer. Morfar är mer kunnig på tändkule motorer än vad jag är.

[@alweb360]

You need ear plugs

[@TrongNguyen-yv1yn]

ok

[@MM-zb1uj]

Danish Quality.

[@井実芳仁]

ポンポン船だ

[@Beemer917]

You could put a little dampening on that pipe. It sounds like a monkey beating on a garbage can and I don't think it has to.
