My model of Soclaine (MGS) Built in 1985. Trawler kit originally called le Zenith 1/24 Scale. My name change is in memory of our beautifull daughter who went to heaven just over four years ago. Anyhow model is beautifull on the water powered by Como MFA 919 Series Electric Motor.
All power is from a lead acid 12 volt battery,lights, running gear . Using a simple set up of two channel Planet T5 Radio.
I sail the boat at Rutherglen Boat Club Glasgow. The weight of this boat is really awesome and I kept adding lead untill it was nearly Impossible to lift,must be getting soft in me old age.. 👍 lol Deck crane is made from odds n ends and an addition..IAN

HI Dave
Thank you for your response and kind remarks,like you I have so many builds but in saying that I have sold about 5 in the past year..None I might add have given back even the original buying cost of just the kit not counting all the additional electrics, still it pays for the buying of another kit..Presently I am building a 1/14 scale Man Tamiya truck unit, no gluing reqd everything is tiny nuts n bolts superb detail..I am selling my Aziz for £350 so wont make anything on the deal

As my builds are in every corner of the house the Aziz has been promised to a new owner in a few weeks time..I still have 6 other builds and truly you can only sail one at a time..lolMy main interest is the building of the ships so selling another one gives me the funds for another build

Do you mean the plans ??? Since this picture was posted I have installed a working Atlas crane on the rear deck next to Girder load..Have only sialed the ship once and found the motors are a tad slow as they are through gearboxes but apart from that it sits well on the water..I am trying to sell many of my ships as the collection is getting a bit large to say the least.I may still have the plans for the ship not sure

Got this kit from E Bay was apartly built well sort of had to re do all the upper deck wheelhouse from scratch was a bit off eeek..Have nearly finished installing all the electrics ready to ballast..I raised the rear hatch area after reading the deck tended to wash over quite easily..Hardly noticeable modification I think..Will sail the model soon and hope all goes well

Bought this kit from Cornwall models ,great fun to build and fairly easy ..At the moment I am in the process of motorising all the move-able parts,Crane rotate and lift lower,Thruster and lighting..My mate from work is a spark and shows me how "to do it " electrically or Im lost.The relay is home made and powers the Bow Thrusters if anyone wants to make one of their own I have a few better pictures to show the wiring in detail . Most will know of this site but if not you can get some excellent items for your ship builds with a good quick service my home made relays switches etc come from here

This is the latest of my builds a french deep sea trawler LE ZENITH .We renamed this model in memory of our daughter who sadly passed away two years ago breaking many hearts.
The ship was a delight to build but has still some electrics to complete..This is my weak point having blown up two speed controllers previously through my inexperience.I have just my speed control to wire and we are ready for a test run when the weather is a bit kinder
