Huson 24 RC sailboat wooden hull. I have a small fleet of these. They are extremely stable in high wind. Bought this one online in pretty good condition.
Did a lot of smoothing on the epoxy coated hull. I use West Systems epoxy because it flows so well - like paint - and doesn’t stink.

The sails need a little repair and Singers fabric glue really worked well. Still have fittings to add to main boom, but you get the idea. Thinking about how the plans rig the sheets. Will try it their way first, but looks like the servo is at a mechanical disadvantage. Plans say max wind is 10 mph! That’s way too low.

ABC Hobbies put out this ABS hull kit with mostly ABS fittings. I bought one used on eBay and it had a broken bulb to keep connection. I bought another on eBay with the same problem. I roger one up and the normal tension broke the jib boom as it sat overnight. So the kit has design flaws. But the hull lines are beautiful- she’s a fine looking racer. Making aluminum beams and reinforcing bulb joint with 3/4 glass and epoxy.

Bought this kit on eBay and it was already started - just the bulkheads and keel. it's a very detailed French Atlantic tuna boat. Pictures are of the restored "Biche". Sails are treated with tannin which turns them red.
