Atlas Engine Company

Rated at 80 horsepower, this three-cylinder model featured a long-stroke design and typified West Coast marine engine design. Make-and-break ignition was standard equipment, it then being considered the ultimate in dependability. Note the use of a handwheel to actuate the reverse mechanism- this arrangement was rather common in West Coast marine engine design.
