Old Silvertrol Electric Trolling Motor. Made by the Silver Creek Precision Corp. in Silver Creek New York. Motor runs great. It will run on 6 or12 volts. It does have some scrapes and scratches from use. One of the stickers on the side of the head has some tearing. The locking bolt on the tilt mechanism doesn't tighten up. It apparently has the threads stripped out. This doesn't affect the use of the motor, as there is an adjustable stop that lets you set the desired depth of the motor. One of the tips on the propeller has been broken off. All of this is shown in photos.This motor has 3 speeds for both 6 and 12 volts. It doesn't display pounds of thrust, but does tell you the RPM's--If hooked up to 6 volts the motor would turn at 175 rpm's on low, 325 rpm's on medium, and 420 rpm's on high. If hooked up to a 12 volt system it would turn at 475 rpm's on low, 700 rpm's on medium, and 850 rpm's on high. All of this is shown on the side of the control head. This is an old motor, and it is pretty heavy. It weighs right at 25 lbs. without any packaging. Item will be shipped UPS Ground as that will be the cheapest form of shipping. Please take a close look at pics as they will give you the best idea on condition and description.

Developed by a French company called Induct, the Navia is ringed with laser beams (not frickin' laser beams. Ed.) that help it navigate through city streets or college campuses without the aid of a track in the ground, a rail or even GPS (GPS is not accurate enough, Induct says).

Wed, 07 Sep 2011

Alongside the Astra GTC and Zafira Tourer, Vauxhall (and thus Opel) is unveiling something a little more ‘out there’ at the 2011 Frankfurt motor show. It’s this tiny city car, which won’t have a name until the official unveiling next week. And this Vauxhall concept car is what exactly?
