HELP!!! North American 2" dredge

[hiptoes]

I have a 2" made by North American dredge Co. out of Oregon,way back when. If anyone has info on the motor and pump I need it,can't find parts. The engine was supposedly used on RC airplanes and made by US Engines that's all I know. Thanks

I had one many , many years ago. Kind of a cool little dredge. It would move a lot more material than any other 2". As far as parts go. I'm sure everything is obsolete. Do you have the pontoons?

This may help you. Thanks to an old listing on eBay.

Really is a cool looking little dredge.

that is a really deep riffle setup for a two incher!

TML radio controlled plane engines back in the day from Canada. I was a dealer and fun toys. I much prefer the pontoon model with waterproof pontoons that held your equipment and the frame was a molded backpack. Tube model way tippy and likes to submarine, double up on tubes for stability. Decent recovery for a puddle pumper, yes them deep riffles work but mandate regular cleanups. Compass-dead metal detector company-owned the line for a few years, poor ol' North American mfg. went kaput. Hope you have a ball as fun n' the sun-John

Must be talking about this one

Pontoons water tight too. A great little sampler as just pickup and go and built TOUGH....John

I have been using mine since I bought it new, back in the late 80's ( I think). I have changed the motor over to a Honda GX31 with a small pump Proline makes. It works great!

I've also seen the tanaka model pumps utilized with decent results, the 2" has the oomph but the 1" not so. Sounds like you've gotten your monies worth 1850. Like I said prior TOUGH unit for sure.tons a au 2 u 2-John John
