About this boat

Metcalfe Kit at 1/48 She is has fine lines and looks well on the water. She handles reasonably well with independent control on each shaft given her length and the amount of superstructure too.
She has direct drive on each shaft and need a load of ballast in the stern to keep the props well in the water otherwise she will cavitate quite dramatically Running 2 x 12 Amp Hour lead acids she has a great run time, helped by her hull lines, she will carry her way for quite a distance, so yo need to keep your wits about you on a busy pond!
She is an ongoing project / refit with new davits and ships boats to be added. (ESC: Action Electronics P94) (8/10)

    Hi ikseno99,
    At least now you can make your workshop to your liking and you don't have to pack everything away when it is lunchtime.
    I look forward to seeing your progress.
    Keep up the good work.

    Martin.

    Hi Martin 555

    Thanks for the compliment.

    All things being equal she will make an appearance at Model Boat Mayhem the weekend.
    Much still to do on the refit front, Davits, Ships Boats, Lights and Radar just for a starter, work stopped as had to build a new workshop, evicted from the dinning room table!!😆😆
