"Rum Chaser" Prohibition Patrol Boat by Carl Whitten

Post 12: Building Cabin 1 and 2
The cabins are 3D printed with most parts already in place. You could paint everything light gray or add a brown trim as I did. The photo researched had it both ways. Trim and no trim just a solid color gray. I was only able to find B&W photos, no color so the trim could have been black or dark gray. See info attached.

Post 15: Convert The Rum Chaser Patrol Boat to Radio Control?
Is that possible? The Rum Chaser Patrol Boat 3D STLs NOW include the Hulls both ways: Boat Stand Supports Built Into The Keel and without. Someone requested the boat hull keel without the built-in stand mounts for a RC conversion. So I have added that to the Cults3D listing. The model was designed to be a static model to just look good. I am an artist model builder not an engineer. The hull may not perform well in water. I hope he is successful. I would love to see the Rum Chaser Patrol Boat as a RC boat on the water.
