That she made such a voyage entitles her to undying fame; but the fact that she made it without a pump is not unusual. Most small boats have a galvanized pipe with a plunger and valve or a fancy little brass affair of small capacity—both of which demand an exhausting outlay of energy to pump a small amount of water. In the event of a leak at sea they would be of no more avail than the rags and dishpans of the Amoy. The AMF power pump is a real pump capable of handling a large volume of water in either the ship or the small boat—a dependable weapon to fight a serious leak. It is also ideal for fighting fires and for the routine work of pumping bilge, and for galley, toilet, and bathroom service. The AMF pump comes equipped with electric motor or gas engine drive, or it may be belt- driven from a marine motor. Write for de- scriptive bulletins. We also build hand pumps and Automatic Water Systems. American Machine & Foundry Company 5520 Second Ave., Brooklyn, N. Y. Please mention MARINE REVIEW when writing to Advertisers
