Fulton Engine Project
10.10.09
We had a first public demo of our Prototype Fulton Engine Display. Although the paddlewheels aren't complete, due to losses in a flood, it does represent the finished goods. It was the first time that the engine, electronic controller and a paddlewheel have been married.
The unit was well received by about 75-100 visitors. Many questions asked about the prototype and the final version. We had a surprise visit by the greart-great-grandson of Robert Fulton's great-great-grandson.
It was a worthwhile exercise for the team members who were there.
