I was clearing the workshop and found the profiles from a Sea Queen i had built a while back & decided to build another i had some 6mm and 2mm lite ply lying around i used polyurethane glue & brass pins to put it together, the shaft i had is a bit short but a double dyco will do the job the next step is to put the motor & rudder in before building the cabin

just about finished only a few deck fittings to add i used a brushless 1700kv motor & 70amp esc it runs well on a 3 cell 5000 mah lipo the planking is made from old wooden blinds
the only outlay was for the motor & esc the rest i had
it is marvelous what you collect over the years my next build will be an airboat i have found a motor from a WOT 4 airplane 😉
