    Sealed up the stern area . Used 2 part epoxy on a table a while back & had some left that I mixed up to seal the interior so it don't leak. Epoxy can be very expensive these days.

    Installation of Motor, Prop Shaft , Stuffing box & stern cut off for prop & rudder installation. I have started to make my own prop shafts from a brass rod & 4mm thread for prop I just hope it don't leak to much I'll use grease in the stuffing box that's a brass tube that prop shaft goes through .There was a lot of cutting needed so propeller has clearance. All these parts will need to be epoxied in place. Then stern area can be re-shaped .

    It was a great day to sit out side & do a little cutting & gluing So I decided that my Galion will need a rounded stern if it's going to be a tug boat .Because Ernest Shackleton ship the Quest was found by the Royal Canadian Geographical Society and the wreck was 1,280 feet below the surface of the northwest Atlantic Ocean roughly 15 nautical miles off the coast of Labrador. Itโ€™s sitting on its keel, with its broken mast lying on the seafloor nearby. I thought that that could also be made into a R/C ship .Can't make up my mind .

    Hi Garth when I go to look at your pictures they get smaller rather than larger!
