    New build to keep me sane during lockdown. Quality kit and a few testing moments. Sea trials this morning and performed perfectly. Next time I am at the pond I will get some pics

    Hi Nery's only a stock photo as stuck in Spain and can't take a photo of my boat. Really enjoyed sailing it and looking forward to a race when this dreadful virus is over

    I have recently finished a sea queen and I took out the pins and filled the holes. in the past I once left a couple of pins in and I could always see the mark as it appeared raised. ๐Ÿ˜Š
    Good luck with the hll skins as I found it the most testing part of the build

    HI Kriz thanks for your comments about sea queen its nice when someone comments after loads of work. you say you are a novice but we all start somewhere and this was only my 2nd build. it took nearly 2 winters to complete and the build was good as aerokits are great quality and good instructions. go for it ๐Ÿ˜Š you will never look back ๐Ÿ˜Š

    HI Alan thanks for nice comments I am pleased with the result. it is my 1st power boat as I have only built sailing boats. The hull does look deep but think its photo as it is a standard kit. Thinking what to do next cheers roger

    The I.O.M. is a great boat to sail and mine is getting on a bit and not very competative these days. Cost of new boats has become a very expensive so I am happy with mine. (5/10)

    HI Dave I am not sure if the sea queen was supposed to be a sea going motor boat or a norfolk broads type cruiser. if it is a cruiser then the detail will be far less.

    Built this from a kit. Sails ok but little wind required as it has a open cockpit and takes water on. (5/10)

    This kit was from westbourne models and they supplied all other bits as well. Build was quite good but some of the fittings a bit naff. Looking now to finish cockpit now I have tried it. (Motor: Standard 800) (ESC: Himark Marine ESC) (9/10)
