The bow thruster i think was part of the original build/ kit of parts as it is shown on the set of build plans i have obtained.although i did not have the boat from scratch, it was built up when purchased.

Yes it was one of the earlier photos taken of the boat when first came into my dry dock.To help with placing parts stripped off. Little did i know it would not stop until i had nearly a bare hull. It did come apart quite easy as the glue was very old.the boat had been passed through several owners,some i assume were plasterers,lumberjacks and someone too strong for delicate work or certainly not boat modellers any way. But hopefully i have restored it to the state these previous owners would have liked, im certainly happy with it.
Noting your comment about the magnets. The combing is quite tight around the inside edge of the superstructure and holds it very firmly, and i feel is not required.But thanks for the idea i feel it will help in holding down the rear deck on my Aziz.which due to the design takes in quite a bit of water when the water is choppy,as it is a flush fit with no upstand of combing. ▲

I just noticed the bow thruster, not being familiar with this model, was this an upgrade or addition?

That looks much better Roger๐
I'm assuming that pic 7 shows the 'Before'. "... locate the main superstructure that was to be left loose for access to the radio gear, battery and motors." Loose!?๐ฎ How about holding it down with some small neodymium magnets? Cheers, Doug ๐ ▲
