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.

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.

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.

I believe the round end towards the bow.That's what I have seen on the big boats.

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.

nice running model.Good job.To be that close to a great place to run must be nice.
|

|

Nice job.Especially when you have the real boat to take the measurements.Then you know it is right.

One thing about the springer,you are not restricted to on idea about the superstructer.Let your imagine set the theme.

After the application of fibreglass or matting i usually put on a second coat of EZ-Cote.After drying lightly sand.Overlaps I find easy to level up with another coat of EZ-Cote.I have been using the same bottle for 3 years.That stuff really stretches.All the wrong size fittings can always be used on other projects or modify them to suit yours.

The Schottel drives rotate so you don't need rudders.Enjoy your build.

Very interesting.It looks like that assembly operates the Kitchen rudder.For reverse the blades close forming a cup behind the prop.

GREAT JOB.A Lot of useful hints in following your blog.I have passed along info on your construction to my friend.He is planning to move to the Phillipines taking his Brooklyn kit with him.Looks like I won't be making a Brooklyn.Love to see yours on the water.
