You are correct Chillytoes. A two stroke opposed piston engine, designed by W H Fullagar. In fact, the first all-welded vessel was the 620T coaster m.v. FULLAGAR built at Cammell Laird in Birkenhead in 1920. THe vessel was fitted with a Fullagar engine which proved unsatisfactory and was replaced with a steam engine. I believe the only remaining engine is in Napier, NZ, in a power plant.
