Here,s a nice tug, built a while ago by one of our society members, can not think of its name, eveything is scratch built, note all the inside detail.

Never be ashamed of building kits, we all started off that way, some stick with it , some advance, but this guy went one stage feather, you go wooooooow when you look close, even down to the rivets on the bulk head frames.

Is that an RC boat?  If so, where does he put all the electronix?

That is truly the work of a master modeller.
