SU Oddity?

[Steve kay]

References to speedboat carbs got me thinking about carbs on Meadows engines. In car use almost always SUs, but I cannot recall whether or not the Meadows in double diagonal speed and RAF boats had SUs or another make. There used to be a couple of such  on Loch Lomond and the Scottish Maritime Museum certainly had at least one ex-boat Meadows in the stores, maybe one of our distinguished Scottish members might investigate. There are certainly none on the Mon & Brec, otherwise I'd go out into the rain and peer into the engine bay.
