I built this in four weeks working every day. Originally a static display kit I have converted the build suitable for RC.
I've used a Raboesch sealed prop shaft, a 2836 brushless motor and a Hobbywing car ESC.
I decided due to lack of time to leave this in clear coat and it seems to go down well with observers. I added many extra details that are not a part of the kit. I've posted a link to the full photo gallery in chronological order.
Questions are welcome.

How about obsolete classics? I built a Midwest Boothbay 30" Lobster boat not that long ago. Problem is you just cannot get them anymore (apart from the 2 unbuilt kits I have in my locker) 🤣 Looks absolutely to die for but not much help when you can't buy one.
EDIT re quality thank you. I do have over 45 yrs as an electrical/engineering craftsman so I know how to use tools ▲

Amazing quality for just 4 years experience!
Keep 'em coming T 👍 If necessary we'll build on another dock 😉 😎 ▲

Hi T33,
"I didn't know there was a harbour 🤔. How much room is there ?😂" There are guys here with around twenty boats/ships in their Harbours. So you needn't start worrying - yet 😉 At an average of one boat every 5 weeks I reckon you're OK for about two years yet 😀 Your building rate makes me quite breathless. Slow down, you're embarrassing some of us 😮🤔 Cheers, Doug 😁 ▲

Hi T33,
You can edit as long and as often as you want. We look forward to that 😀 Really great work 👍👍👍 I'm converting a Billing Fish Cutter, Gina 2, from static to RC. But I got mine already built - very badly - which complicates matters fitting the running gear 🤔 Cheers, Doug ▲

I've just added one of many but I'm unsure how long the editing time is. Is it something I can edit indefinitely? as I progress.

That is a question that i don't know the answer to.
All i can say is just keep adding to it and then we will see if we need to do something about it. Martin555. ▲
