Excellent work and progress.The deck looks great.
|

Nice work on the tug.👍Great seeing the boat on the water that isn't frozen over like we are up here.😤
|
|||
|
|||
Nice clean build.It will look good on the water.Great job.👍
|
|||
|

That is a great looking tug.Go for it.Judging by what I have seen you accomplish on the Brooklyn,this will be another beautiful build.

Looking at the stern of the boat and you have 2 rudders. The port prop should be counter clockwise and the starboard one clockwise.If you have only one rudder then the port is clockwise and the starboard one is counter clockwise.

Nice job.Looks really good. Don

Excellent craftsmanship.I envy your skills.Fabulous.👍👍👍

Coming along nicely.That's the thing with Springer hulls.The superstructure is not confined to one style.One of our members in the club had one hull but three different superstructures.He was able to change them throughout the days sailing.

|

Great progress on the build.I like your idea on mounting the switch.Looking forward to the completion of the build.

I have changed over to the ProBoat Marine Grease.It comes with an injector that screws onto the tube.Very happy with the product.Just one idea.
|

Happy New Year to you,Marky.All the best for the coming year. Happy New Year for all.

Before going to the expense of new esc's.Check the current draw when the boat is in the water.I should have mentioned that sooner.
|
|||
|

When I had a Schnellboot it was 1/31 scale and I used Speed 400's.My esc's were 50 amp.I had no problem.Once you put the boat in the water there is more resistance on the props.With that there is more current draw.Maybe look into getting a higher rated esc.

I remember a few years ago that I was excited to get the boat finished and I went to the pond.Put the boat in the water and ran it for awhile.Brought it back in and opened up the superstructure only to find quite a bit of water in the bottom.I was in a rush and forgot to grease the stuffing tube.One thought for you.

All the cooling coils I have seen,do not have the coils soldered together.On all the ones I have weren't soldered.They all provide the cooling very well.

Congradulations to the parents and to you. All the best wishes to you and all. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Great looking models.Nice job.Love to see more when you get them done👍👍

Like has been said,Miss Doris looks great on the water.She runs great with the ability to manouver very well.Good for steering competitions.
|
|
|||
Nice job.Great to see a boat running built from a Vic Smeed plan.Should do good in a steering competition with the manouverability you have.Lovely boating pond.
|

Beautiful job on the Brooklyn.The colours really suit it. We are waiting for the snow to hit here also.

The boat is taking shape nicely.Instrument panel looks great.
|
|||
|

Great idea using separate feeds.One less worry.👍
|
|||
|

That's where the skipper of my Jersey City got to.He must have known one of the Police "Ladies" was going to be part of the crew.
|

Your ship is coming along nicely.Good job.
|

I believe the round end towards the bow.That's what I have seen on the big boats.
|
|||
|
|||
Good idea boxing in the ballast.Even bagged sometimes moves around.Lovely looking model.Great job.
|
|||
|
|||
Lovely restoration.Great job.👍
|
|||
|
|||
Excellent work.Especially like your metal work.Great job.Looking forward to see it finished and running.
|
|||
|
|||
Great job.Looks like with the 3D printer you will have the boat finished a lot quicker than I can.Nice to be able to use modern technology for your build.The details so far look good.Will look forward to more details being added.
