Hello, according to Lloyd's Registers Norwegian ?fishing vessel PRÆSIDENT WILSON, built in 1919 built at Bergen, had the steam engine built by Neafie & Levy Ship & Engine Building Co., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Does anyone know where this engine came from (Neafie & Levy closed 1907) ? Best regards, Kris.

Hello, I found something (thanks to a great help from AvM), such an engine had the American yacht Speedwell, built by Neafie & Levy in 1893 (yard# 862, ON100552) as Intrepid, later Invincible and Speedwell, listed until 1916 as far I know. Does anyone know her fate ? Best regards, Kris.
