Work Boat "Green Goose Boater's Aid"
Fresh off the shipyard is the new addition to my flotilla. This boat is made out of a fiberglass hull with superstructure and cabin made with 2mm ABS plastic sheet. It still needs a bit of details but I couldn't resist the opportunity to share it. This is a marine assistance boat from my imagination following the lines of similar boats here and there.

"El Jefe" Outboard Center Console Boat
After watching too many episodes of a Colombian series on Pablo Escobar in Netflix I had to do something about it. So here is "El Jefe". Taking ideas from several different simple center console boats and using an an outboard drive unit, I came up with this boat using, in large part, recycled material from other builds I previously cannibalized. I got the flat-bottomed fiberglass hull from a source in the USA. This one is a pretty fun drive on a 1/10 scale. Not too fast, not too slow.

(Pleasure Craft) "Dirty Deeds" Inspired on 1970s Bertram Yachts
I love old Bertram yachts and especially those from the 1970s when Bertrams were the standard followed by other manufacturers. I particularly like the stylish lines of the 33 to 46 footer Bertrams. Using a fiberglass pre-made barebones hull, many fittings like the seats, docking lights, navigation lights, hatch, vents and others were made on a 3D printer. it took nearly 155 hours (about 3 months) to complete.
