    Old Robbe Acapulco
    Hi y’all. I made a trade with a fellow modeler here in Texas last year for a Robbe Acapulco. Since I finished the Neptune, I thought I’d build the Acapulco, then take a break from building for a couple of months...give me time to do some model maintenance and actually play with the doggone boats😁 This is an original Robbe kit from some time ago, both the kit and fittings box state “made in West Germany”. I’m using a 35x30 1700kv outrunner for power, I used this same setup on an old Imex
    Taurus
    that I converted to a “police boat” for my daughter, Grace. The Acapulco and the
    Taurus
    are roughly the same size, although I think the Acapulco might end up a heavier boat. Anyway, nothing really hard about the build itself, as the Acapulco is a fairly simple boat to get running, just a lot of painting and railing to solder up. I have a few pics of my progress so far.
