Nice pictures, thank you for posting them. I was originally IC in most of my boat's, except 2 new ones that I purchased that had brushless in them. I had a couple with brushed and found them very slow for my liking. I have kept one as a recovery boat. I have since removed the IC engines and sold them on Ebay and purchased all new Brushless Motors to put into them. I am a bit of a speed freak myself.

A superb model one to aspire to. Please enlighten the uneducated what does Rttl stand for, the hull looks very similar to that of my Fire Boat is it in the family?

Wicked looking model. I cannot wait to see her on the water on her maiden voyage. Have you got any picture of the workings inside the boat and the dive setup under the boat at all that you could post on here for us to see please?🤞🤞

So far my collection resembles "The Island of Misfit Toys". I've picked up several boats that are old builds and have been neglected. I'm giving them the TLC they need, hoping to bring them back to their former glory. Once I get enough practice/ experience I intend to take on a full build.
Well here we are all complete and ship shape as they say. All trimmed in the bath, radio gear checked, new batteries, props turning correctly, rudders centred. Ready for pond tomorrow. Video to follow later. We will see what she goes like under power.
