110% Turnabout

The project started as a larger Clyde Puffer than the Mk I model.

Just 10ks away in one of the parks is a very nice boating lake run by the City of Albany , away from the strong winds down on the harbour custom made for model boat, just one slight hitch sailing boats only so my new venture will be just fine.
