The Wee Nip is still a modern looking classic design RC Sailing yacht. Seen here in the heart of Derbyshire UK she embraces peace and tranquility.

Hi Roy - certainly a great little boat - sure it will be even better with your proposed upgrades.
Brushless should certainly stop noise and help
reduce vibration !
Note - Video shows how well she keeps up with the Wee Nip
👍⛵ cheers

"Alexandra"
Looking like a Windermere Pleasure boat, "Alexandra" is actually a German River Cruiser owned by Buxton Model Boat Club member Keith Holmes.

On Bank Holiday monday 31st August 2020 , Buxton MBC put on a display at Buxworth Basin in the High Peak of Derbyshire.
Ref Wikipedia - Bugsworth Basin is a canal basin at the terminus of the Peak Forest Canal. It is located at Buxworth in the valley of the Black Brook, close to Whaley Bridge. It was once a busy interchange with the Peak Forest Tramway, for the transport of limestone and burnt lime.
