About this boat
These are my active ships at the moment.
There are always repairs to be done, but it's always amazing to see these models on the water.

Cheers Colin.
You have a nice fleet of ships there. I like it. This ship is Graupner's pilot boat, right? I'm pretty sure about that, because I also had this on the workbench as a restoration project. Unfortunately it couldn't be saved.
Wolle: this is the pilot from Graupner, I built this in 1985, but with my imagination.
Colin: No unfortunately I don't live directly on the water, but our club pond is not far from here. Look at the plan.
I'm working on a bicycle trailer to get to it . . . For the next year! ☺️
Here are a few autumn photos
Ciao Michel-C.
Ps: The last photo especially for the joy of the icebreakers
Mine looked like this too, I treated the inside and outside of the hull with eze-kote.
First with 1/2 eze-kote and 1/2 water, then after drying with 100% eze-kote.
I glued reinforcements to the inside in advance. This makes the fuselage stable again.

Here was the biggest problem, you can still see it. But in the water I always drive out of sight, so nobody can see it! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Servus, Michel-C.
Whoever doesn't give up wins!
When someone dies, you leave a gap . . Well, in my case it was my cousin of the same age. Stories that life writes!
But it also has its crazy side. I received a personal package from the notary along with the inheritance distribution . .and guess what was in it???
Her former alarm clock, whose melody I loved so much, a stick with childhood photos of the two of us and . . . My favorite ship from my childhood, which I had probably forgotten at her place and always missed. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I‘m happy, Michel-C.
Last Sunday I surprised my youngest grandchildren with boating on our pond. They were totally happy because they each had their own boat with their own transmitter.
A few months ago, I bought some transmitters with receivers very cheaply from a modelling shop that had closed due to age and had no successor.
You can have a bit of luck, can't you?
These two boats now each have their own remote control. The others will follow.

PS: what a fuss about a grass snake! ! ! Just Children . . .🤣🤣🤣🤣
You must be a very very very happy granddad!!!! Grandchildren who loves modelboats! None of mine are interested😂😂😂😂
I know the problem of today's electronic age.
All my guests who come to me/us know that there is a basket on a piece of furniture at the entrance. For better or worse, you have to put your mobile phone (or iPad for the big kids) in there.
My respect for the guest,
. . . . I take my time for him without outside interference!
My way of life and being there for friends. If you don't respect it, you don't get coffee . . .
🤣🤣🤣
Your Michel-C.
Ps: In the club, the mobile phones must be placed on top of each other in a cross shape in the centre of the table.
Anyone who removes their mobile phone during a call pays a table round! Actuary Michel-C. has introduced this.
You know him! 🤣🤣🤣
