I had a friend who is a photographer take 😎 pics of the big torpedo boat model. Used an 800 mm zoom lens.
This was before I made corrections to this boat

OK. Not exactly a boat. But it is a flying boat
I got this Flying W plane made mostly out of Depron sheets. Minor repairs and flies off water, grass, snow, or hand launch.
Also it can be flown just in ground effect off water. WIG concept. Wing In Ground affect
Loads of fun !!!!
Videos of water takeoff and water landing. 👍

Reminds me of those family photos with the tallest at the back.
How long is that first vessel? It must take up the full width of the backseat. ▲

I was invited by the Sarasota model RC sailing club to bring the big 6. Ft long TB-1 torpedo boat to an event in which a local TV morning show will be doing a spot on their club. I was to be just a side show. I brought the TB-1 USS Cushing as well as my PT-109. It was all fun.
I may contact the show for a future topic in the big boat I refurbished and maybe our radio control airplane club in Venice Florida.
Pictures attached.

Took my big 6.5 ft long old Spanish American war era 👍Torpedo boat for a cruise.
Video at full speed. One of the three motors has a missing gear tooth and is making noise. I can’t replace it without major surgery. So for now, it is ok.
Also, I had a friend photographer take still pictures with a zoom lenses should get them professionally edited and sent to me ho

Hi Ron,
That's because it aint Spanish, it's American, Spanish War ERA😉 There were several 3 stackers in the American fleet. See Isaac's Build Blog for the research we did on this subject several months ago. Cheers, Doug😎 ▲

Last night we stayed at home hunkered down for hurricane Milton. We were in the eye of the storm.
Made it ok. No flooding.
Still no power, but my generator is working.
All my boats and planes are safe
Hope our other Florida mates are ok as well.

Good for you, I was concerned. Lost about 3/4 of our flooring. Rood and walls in tact. Yard is a real mess. Lew

Took my airboat and the big torpedo boat to the lake today.
A bit choppy. But lots of fun. I let a young boy drive the TB boat as well. He did good.
Later on I found one of the motors lost all the retaining screws to the gearbox. Back to dry dock for repairs .

Many observers ask me if I fish with the boat. I guess I can, but once I catch anything, it will be like a scene from the movie Jaws 🤣🤣🤣
I'm going to need a bigger boat 😁

Fun at the park. A big lake and nice day to run the boat at the Wellen Park in Florida. The owner of the bike and kayak shop took this video of my shrimp boat Capt CJ (it is a scale boat; the full boat was destroyed during hurricane Ian a couple of years ago).
here is the link. I don't know how to copy the video by itself.

This is a scale model of an actual shrimp boat. It was custom designed and built by a local guy ( of which I purchased 2 more from just as large ). The model is 48 inches long by 13 inches at its widest. It is also approx 30 inches tall with the masts. picture of the actual boat and the model on dry land attached. 😎 Isaac
