  Hello Everyone,
Have being away for a while but not idle,spent 100s of hours trawling the net on my pre-RC Tugboat quest

I maybe mad,odd and a little over the top in many of my questions to fellow members,but I am just trying to enjoy myself and make the RC Tugboat excitement (when it arrives) a bit more exciting....Maybe

As the above subject line states I was wondering if anyone new of of any individual or company who makes scaled down waterproof models of Illuminated (Flashing) Navigational buoys/markers?

I actually discovered a seller in Germany who sells rather nice small navigational buoys,but they are just ornaments(which I am buying anyway) but they are just what I would have liked to find for real use in the water!

Please see attached pics*

If anyone can help or knows of someone who can make a nice item please pass on my request

all the very best Steve

You could try a search on Ebay for flashing leds.  We use them a lot.

Hope this helps

  >hello Dave & John

Many thanks for getting in touch..

I have seen a kit made by ROBBE  with two buoys in the kit but its a bit expensive and I am not up to building anything unfortunately.
I am really not up to building stuff plus I want the items to look the part so I don't mind paying for the items been made for me.

all the best Steve

Yes you are right John
The buoys were in the Conserver (buoy laying vessel) Kit.
