    Based loosely on a couple of photos taken in Dover Harbour, Jack D was scratchbuilt with ply hull,and 3D printed deck and wheelhouse by my lad, neilw .Many accessories have also been produced by him as well as installing twin motors and rudders.
    At 1:16 scale,Ive fitted out the wheelhouse and built the rc controlled crane which Will eventually launch a small recoverable USV also R/c
    Still some detailing to complete before lake trials in late March
