Thank you Neil.
And also to everyone else who has helped me with this build, either with their knowledge, skill and practical help or by their kind words.
I've really enjoyed Mayhem for that.

Dear Howard,


I'm no electronics expert either and so my Tamar stops short of having everything working. So can't really help on that score I'm afraid.


I'd be interested in what you come up with though so that I can pluck up the courage to do it myself too!!

Howard
Here's my suggestion. I didn't think you'd be too happy to wait until Sunday when the Warwick show ends and I get back. Let me know if this is OK - sorry there's no lights but I ran out of channels after six.

You are a b***** genious Dave.........haven't forgotten your very kind offer to sort out my electrics for the Voith powered Jupiter when I get around to that stage..........but it's a long way off that stage  yet mate.  %% %%

A couple of photos, especially for Derek, of the prop spacing jigs I used on the 1/12 Tamar. The measurements of prop position were taken from the RNLI plans.

Hi Olav,
Yes it's a huge amount of work but so satisfying.
The forum has been a great help for me and you will find lots of friends here who can give you advice. Just ask!


All the best,
Chris
