hi there, nice looking model. Yes I built this one as well. It is a pleasure to sail on the lake - if you have a look in My Harbour you will see there are a few photographs of the one I built.

Hi John:
I used to teach Tech Design in a High School before I retired a couple years ago. I built the Challenger II with my class in an article posted in Radio Contontrol Boat Modeler back in the 80's. Full size plans were not provided so AutoCAD was used to measure and scale the "blue" plans printed in the article to a size that could be built in class with scrap materials available in my scrap box. Because of this the model is way too heavy but it sits nicely in water. It is on the schedule to be painted this year if I can get ahead on my builds before winter sets in and it is too cold to paint outside. ▲
