Welcome

At Rappahannock Boat Works, we've been building steam boats for over ten years now.   We bought Tiny Power in 2004 so we could supply good, reliable steam engines and engine models to our customers.  We also sell Myers Model Engine Works steam and hot air engine model kits.

Here's what we do:

Boats - We build custom-designed wood steam launches up to 30 feet in length. We build from the ground up, partial builds, or outfit existing fiberglass or wood hulls.

Engines - We build full-size steam engines for boats, and we also sell our engine castings for the do-it-yourselfer.

Model Engines - We sell steam engine model kits and hot air engine models for the hobbyist.

Boilers - We sell ASME code boilers manufactured to our specifications.

Steam Accessories - We sell reflex water gauges, lubricators, drip oilers, etc.--everything you need for your steam project.

Name Boards - We design and make wooden name boards for boats, or paint boat names on hulls.

EACH BOAT WE BUILD IS UNIQUE

Our steam launch projects are always one-of-a-kind, featuring unique styles, colors and components.


EACH ENGINE IS A WORK OF ART

You'll get quality and great attention to fine detail with each engine we build.
