1/24 scale Vosper RTTL with a wooden hull

Phil, if you clean up the area around the propshaft entry end and rough up the shaft tube, you can then re-glue using a slow cureing 2pack epoxy. And yes it will be okay with Zpoxy. Cheers Colin.

Boat Harbour

Flower class corvette

Not built to a specific ship, but made to my liking. Way to fast on the water at the moment with a 360 motor and 35mm prop, so going to try a 30mm prop

Vesper mtb

My first attempt at building an rc boat from plans. A long way from perfect, but it looks good on the water.

RNLI Shannon class lifeboat

This is my Speedline Models “Shannon” lifeboat at 1:16 scale. Possibly my favourite build so far, it took the best part of 5 months! Running on brushless motors pushing water through Oceanworks jet drives (very much like the Hamilton’s on the full size) very scale like.

Morston - H A Kits (small version)

She's finished and sailed well on her first outing on a wet miserable day. The wind was blowing hard and there was a bit of a swell on the pond at Clevedon, but I was very pleased, she seemed a little bow heavy until I remembered that she is a model of a working boat, not a cruiser and then I realised that she looked right! Everything worked she turned and ran well, no photos of this one unfortunately it was raining too hard but when she is sailing next time I will add the photos of her on the water. Really enjoyed building my first model in 52 years a big thank you to everyone who has helped with their advice and encouragement. I will hopefully build another one soon, certainly not as long a gap as the last time!
