Hmmm. National...Federal. Federal....National. ??

I've never seen a National. Produced between 1916 and 1918 they are described as "ornate".

For more information:

  • Check Arlan Carter's book that is specifically on rowboat motors.
  • Check out Peter Hunn's book.
This is the only ad I have found in various magazines. Always full page and this exact ad.

This is interesting, below is a Koban article where the printer used a National image!

An AOMCI member spotted it - "...special weird flywheel, twin opposed cylinders, external horseshoe magneto on top of the port cylinder."
