Steampunk Pirate Ship

Posted by on June 29th,2011

Andy Tibbetts of Portland, Oregon in the US is building a Steampunk pirate ship:

The C.S. Tere is a 100% custom-built steam punk pirate ship. She has a hand built steel frame encased in wood, driven by a 10 foot diameter hub-less front wheel and two steel wheels in the rear. The ship will be powered by a 3 cylinder engine which drives hydraulic pumps.  Steering is rear wheel and occurs from the captains’ deck.

To this end, a Kickstarter project has been, well, kicked off. Check out the video:
