I didn't want you to miss my question. I copied this out of my wood boat show thread;
Eric, Saw a very early Paragon hydraulic hooked up to a flywheel forward 283 marinized by Chris. I would have gotten a picture but I forgot my camera! This is even after I talked about it! Was Paragon the first to come out with the hydraulic? What year was that? |

ive seen them as the early 60's hydraulically, in the beginning they were alot of mechanicals from the 50's. im sure they were one of the first maybe, i really dont know. they started out in Taunton Massachusetts then Twin Disc purchased them and then Great Lakes Power ended up with them. the earliest hydraulic i remember is about 1965. if you remeber the old landing craft at d-day they used Twin Disc Mechanicals, now im curious on the history, I'll do some digging
