Launches 



ARE ideal gentlemen's launches, free from complications and care, and should appeal 

 to the angler, the hunter, and every lover of nature, as they are designed with a 

 view of supplying more genuine, healthful pleasure to the square inch than any- 

 thing we know of. They are elegant to look at — a pleasure to ride in — easy to manage — 

 safe and reliable. There is no heat, no smoke, no fire, no engineer or pilot, no govern- 

 ment license required, no offensive odor, no noisy exhaust; under way in ten seconds. 

 The most simple, economical, powerful and effective outfit ever offered. There are three 

 thousand of these launches in use, and we ship them to all parts of the globe. They 

 were used exclusively at the Pan-American and Omaha Expositions, where they carried 

 thousands of delighted people. Why ? Because they were the best. A launch as shown 

 above is 16 ft. long, and can be operated in 8 inches of water, enabling the angler and 

 the hunter to invade the feeding grounds with ease. 



We build a 15 ft. Fishing Launch for $150
