This boat started life as a cheap chinese import with substandard radio and unfinished deck detailing. It was white plastic finish and the usual stern tube set up with i/c motor and flexible coupling. I recognised the boat configuration as the Gancia dei Gancia offshore racer and decided to make it just that. I set about fitting a flexible transom mounted drive with Octura x40 prop. The decals I ordered from Japan and luckily they still had these in stock as their own Gancia model kit had been discontinued for almost 20 years.
