Any ideas on this one? It came off a 36 horse, I have never seen one like this, does anyone out there in Samba-land have any ideas?

Generator or compressor maybe? I've never seen a VW-made boat.

saw a pic in an old VW history book- not real successful- styling took over from common sense  and they seemed to run a bit hot.

I don't think that VW built the wood laminate hull, but the Volks-Liner (powered by an air-cooled 36 HP ) was sold by select East Coast VW dealers.

| In any event, Dave's manifold doesn't look like the pictures I have seen of the Volks-Liner's exhaust system. |
