\nHello, a year ago I stumbled over some pictures of an inboard hydroplane on the internet. I forgot to add the site to my favorites and now I can\u2019t find it. It had a rather unusual engine (even for us Europeans) a three cylinder 2-stroke engine from an IFA Wartburg, which is a German car from the era when Germany was divided. This one was manufactured in East-Germany. I haven\u2019t seen this type of engine in a boat before, or in another context either for that matter. I had hoped that someone knew of the website, and could give me an address. I am a member of The Classic Race Boat Club in Sweden, and I am restoring an outboard hydroplane that was made for the Crescent Race Team in the sixties. I haven\u2019t got my hands on a Crescent engine yet so I will make do with a Yamato for now. I\u2019ll attach a few pictures of my boat and a sister boat I saw at a classic race this summer. I won\u2019t race this summer but I\u2019ve taken a license for next year (2007)
\nThank you for the best Hydroplane site on the internet.
