Hi,
This is a Billing Boats kit (No 472). This kit is sold as a static model, but I have converted it to radio control. There is a full build log available here. These are the final set of photos…

The hatchway over access to the electronics…





























Her maiden voyage…

Hi everyone, thanks for all of your kind words. She was a lot of fun to build, and I’ll definitely be back with another build once I work out what that is going to be.

 

[Macika]

Superb job! Fantastic final result!

That's a remarkable picture of a remarkable boat. The 'sea' could be the Mediterranean around the Greek islands and the boat could be the real thing to my eyes. This is truly an outstanding achievement.

Hey, thanks Smithy...I was pretty happy with that one too. I was lucky to have a perfect day (after weeks of rain) and the pool was full to the brim so you don't notice the edges so much.

Very nice! Job well done!! Now I'm off to the build log!

How's about a video of her afloat and in motion? "Hint, hint..."
