This is a cool vintage piece. A depth chart recorder for recording the depth of the ocean. May have been used to find fish as well. Runs off 12v DC. Uses a strobe/ timing technology with fine wire on a spinning wheel to apply small nicks in a slowly scrolling paper chart. I checked it out with a 12 v battery as shown. This didn't have a transducer with it. All the functions seem to work though.
Made by Apelco of Manchester, NH. Which I believe was bought by Raytheon Marine.

Bugatti Veyron Bleu Centenaire – first details

Tue, 03 Mar 2009

Bugatti Veyron Bleu Centenaire - another Veyron Limited Edition appears at Geneva '09 [ad#ad-1] We had a pretty good idea this was coming, as we reported last week, but the Bugatti Veyron Bleu Centenaire has appeared at the Geneva Motorshow last night. Contrary to expectations, it would appear that the Bleu Centenaire carries the stock 1001bhp Veyron engine and not, as was much speculated upon, a boosted version. Still, it looks like Bugatti have had the paring scissors out, and the reduced weight of the Bleu Centenaire should trim the Veyrons already awesome 0-60 time by a tenth or two.
