info on a 1947 Lundy outboard hydro & dead mans throttle
Hello, Ok i'm new to the whole hydro plane scene. I recently purchased a 1947 Lundy hydro plane, the outboard type. Does anyone have or know where I can get any information on these?? Where they were made, what horse power outboard, Etc.? Also right now it has a boat remote on it, I would like to put a deadmans throttle back on it. I would prefer a vintage one instead of a new one, any ideas of where I could get one ?? I don't really plan on racing this (I have several wood boats) I just thought it was kinda cool and the price was right. It does need a new transom on it, the guy had left it outside standing upright, leaning against his garage and it rotted the transon out. Whichn is my final question (at least for now) where can I get a pattern to use for replacing the transom??
Thank You in advance for your help.

I have a second vintage Keller throttle for sale that I removed from my Karelson hydro when I changed out to a smaller throttle unit made by Lee Tietze. Email me if you are interested in buying the throttle unit and I will send you a digital picture of it. I also have a new, vintage pipe-puller handle if anyone is interested in buying it.
