My Fire boat project

As promised here are some pictures of my new build which I am making into my own designed fireboat.
I decided to make this model as I had an old Billings Admiral 41" hull lying around which is what got me started, I have wanted to design my own superstructure for a while now and have at last got round to it!
the boat is already running off a single Torpedo 850 motor and has got plenty of speed to it, as from my last post this was going to be a large police boat but I decided that i wanted a fireboat instead in my collection.
I have ordered all the lettering and decals to be put on this boat as well as the fire monitors and other fittings.
Hope you like it so far!

Nice model Nige52! you must be proud of that one.
Mine has now had a few coats of paint and I have used minature aluminium treadplate for the deck. tommorow I will be putting in the window glazing and fitting its fire & rescue signage, I have ordered some working blue flashing led lights and I have nearly finished building its mast which will hopefully look good when its on.
