Well, I'm about to start my Vosper. I painted the crew, glued the transom in place. made a rudder up because I'm just thinking about how I'll propel the boat, rummage around in the drawers for a motor and drive shaft prop that may take a while. The model is about 24 inches in length, and the third photo shows that it takes 7 screws to hold it to the hull easily, but it may be a problem changing batteries. Lots of thinking will be needed to R/C the Vosper.P/S Ron gave me some ideas so thanks, Ron.

Enjoy the build Garth, it has many possibilities and in this kit you will have photo etched parts which will require a decision to use or not. I don’t like them! Fiddling with them as the parts are generally tiny and require CA to attach them.
Regarding the attaching the deck to the hull, I applied clear silicone as a gasket before using the screws. I have never had to remove it.

Also, seal those port holes!
