Stirling engine powered paddle boat. Built by Jim Tangeman in 1997

Now there is a happy man and his colleague. I love it when he asks, " Where are we heading to?" and the answer by the brilliant engineer was , " I do not know, it moves!" Now that is what life is all about, loving what we do. Congratulations .

Nice Stirling implementation !

Nice to see Jim's Dory when she was sterling powered. She's now steam powered with a lamont boiler

Very neat.

excellent video sir, would be very interested in the bore/stroke numbers, flywheel weight. I too have built an engine i believe nearing these proportions and am trying to realise the optimum D/P size relationship to connecting rod length. my engine seems to run at the same rpm as this one, but,, displacer weight and fit make HUGE differences in the temp that the engine starts at,,insight plz?

[@superliegebeest544]

My first question would be how we stop this thing?

[@COLINJELY]

Excellent! 😊

Great job on that project. Have you made any modifications since 1997? I have a paddle wheel boat myself, however, it's powered with a conventional engine.

[@PolskieNagrania]

Super!

[@larryfelcyn]

If theres any plans available to build these please let me know. I want to build an outdoor wood boiler and use a stirling engine to power a generator to power my home. Thanks.

The wheels stick too far into the water. Most of the energy is going to push water up and down.
