It's a USA challenge boat of the era..

Is that Gar Wood's Miss America X thinking. This boasted four Packard V12 aero engines. Inline pairs had their crankshafts directly coupled and carefully phased to allow them to function as V24 units, a feat Packard said was impossible. Each of the four was capable of 1600 hp scared allowing it to be the first to exceed 125 mph!

It won him back the speedboat cup during 1932-33 from us Brits who's boat had the new superior Merlin engines, but only two.

Alan, that is actually for TM-IMG, which is a separate site to TM and kindly provided by Peter.

The post I linked to is for people using Talk Morgan to post photos.

In early versions of the site, there were limits on the size of photo a member could post but these were removed years ago and therefore, photos can be posted with ease using Talk Morgan or an external site.
