Sea Hornet price
Amazing info, thanks so much.
That explains how I could afford the boat but not the RC gear.

Hi Richard,
Somewhere between 30 and 35 bob I guess.🙄
See attached original Aerokits advert from the sixties.
Around the time that my Dad bought the slightly larger Sea Scout for 35/-. 😮
My recent Blog of her renovation and updating to brushless is on this site.
Look for Sea Scout Jessica.
Cheers, Doug 😎

Young at heart 😉 Slightly older in other places.😊 Cheers Doug

My first ever attempt at building a “RC” model boat was in 1972 with an aerokits? Sea Hornet.
I fitted it with an ED marine diesel but at the time could not afford the RC gear. I seem to remember that a single channel transmitter was around £16 and I was earning £70 a month!
I see that SLEC offer an updated kit for £80 and I am very tempted to revisit those early building days.
I am very curious about how much the first kit would have cost back then and wondered if anyone would have that information?
