Research question: engine for 1920/30s European motor launch?

I am trying to research what engine such a vessel as the ones below in the 1920's / 30s would have had. I presume it would be powered by diesel. I am particularly interested in how to start it - would that be by a cord or a crank or a key?
I've been googling without luck. Any help welcome!image_transcoder.php?o=bx_froala_image&h=453&dpx=1&t=1621678599

You've got the luxury of challenging every sentence for excess. Make sure you never use more than one adjective, or one description. For example if you have wriiten 'he was breathing hard and sweating' go with either he was breathing hard' or 'he was sweating'.

Thanks V. I really enjoyed Klara and the Sun. I love the premise, particularly the period with Klara in the store, she's so innocent. The way that Klara processes complex information by seeing it in boxes is a stroke of cubist genius. He's such a unique writer that it's pointless musing how one would have perhaps tackled things later differently, as he is what he is! You just have to suspend what you know about how people behave and accept his 'reality'.

No, nothing with Radio 4, can't have everything! The audiobook is read by the actress Eva Feiler and she has a lovely (English) accent. She makes Evie (my protagonist) sound very sweet.
