Hi Cash,
It is good to see you are keeping yourself busy. I like the fact that you are doing your own thing and making a boat as you go along. I personally would make the Bridge/wheelhouse more streamlined to blend in with the hull. It is just a suggestion. Martin555. ▲

Good start Cash. Sounds like a bit of a Hybrid. Any idea what you will call it. Something like Johnny Cash`s Cadilac?😁

Nery, she’s a little of both. There’s whispers of intel that the Oklahoma rabbits have acquired an old BV-141 for recce work...

Cash, that's as good an excuse for her existence as you can get. Bit of tarting up with military gear and she'll even look the part.
Do those pesky rabbits shoot down many of your aircraft that you need rescue services or is this just a humanitarian gesture to your fellow beings? Cheers, Nerys ▲

Hi Ed. Yep, after I get paint and radio install done, I’m going to make up rails and a short mast for her. Might do lighting also, but not sure if I will. This is kind of an experiment in “shooting from the hip” as far as design goes, if it looks good and runs well it will give me a foundation to try other things.

Did you glue or solder the rail and stanchions Cash? whichever one, you have done a very professional job on them, really sets the boat off.👍

Looks good Cash, amazing what a bit of detail can do to even the most basic model. How about some lights, fairleads, cleats etc as well ?

So far so very good 👍 Neat idea with the rafts Cash👍
I'd stick with the bright yellow tho, in OD they'd never be seen at sea from the air! Even German ships and coastal forces had yellow rafts. I guess if you're floating about in the Atlantic or North Sea etc you couldn't care less who rescues you - as long as someone does!🤔🤓😊 Cheers, Doug ▲

Hi Cash,
She could really use a Mast! But, that's just my opinion! LOL! Cheers, Ed ▲

Cash,
I'm thinking something like a PTB mast, selection in attached pic, after all, you'll need a radar for the Flak Fire Control Director 😉 Or something simple like the RAF HSL 100 Series? Oh! And apart from the usual handling clutter on the foredeck; how about a twin 20mm? Errol would meow that🐱 Cheers, Doug 😎 PS Now you can vacate that uncomfortable position on the fence!😮😭 ▲

I’m thinking you’re right. A mast she’ll get.
