Be careful Pat, I don't know how big your rudder is (because I can't see it) but if it's to scale it's fine for turning with a propeller but it won't be enough with sail propulsion alone (without the flow of water on the rudder generated by the propeller you need a lot of speed).

Hi Alessandro
yes it has a motor as well - it is a big heavy model so in light winds like today turning it is a little difficult- will be interesting to see it in stronger winds 😄 ▲

This is before the details were added. It was the first time it had been wet since it was refitted.
Also a couple pictures of it closer to completion.

Please stop sending emails on a daily basis to Victor Robinson. I find them very upsetting as he passed away 15 months ago. Thank you.

Thanks for letting us know Eric, I hope you are able to get the new site up and running shortly.
Bob (zooma). No idea why I am known as “zooma too” when using my iPhone. Very annoying and unable to correct. ▲

Back in May, we put on a show at the Hamilton Steam Museum. I forgot that I had recorded the Balloon Buster, so here's that video. It sure was cold in May, and the Pool leaked like a sieve due to all the holes those boats put in the liner.

Thanks for sharing Garth. A couple of those balloons must have had thick skins or your Lances were dull.

A long read but the pdf is the story of the USS Canopus and it's last stand at Corregidor. He was captured at the fall and survived the Bataan death march and after some time was shipped to Japan to work in a copper mine until liberation. He died in 1977 after retiring as a senior member of IBM.

We sail several in our group, I have two one of which is raced every Sunday. At one stage we would have up to 15 racing weekly. They are a great introduction to rc sailing.
