These taffrail log instruments are solid brass and when polished up and mounted on a nice teak or mahogany base make great book ends or desk lamps. Cost Uncle Sam $500.00 each back in the 1940's, would probably be $1500.00 or more today. These taffrail logs were towed behind Liberty and Victory ships and recorded the nautical miles the ships logged in a 24 hour period. We have them priced at $95.00 for the instrument only. Fish and flywheel spinners are extra. Also, we still have a few of the beautiful Riva and Chris Craft models. They are 24" in overall length. Upscale stores usually get about $600.00 for one of these models. Until Christmas only and while supplies last we are making them available at $195.00 each. Mention that you saw them in our BLOG and we'll include the shipping in the lower 48 states only. They are packed for shipping and ready to go.
