Title: Weymouth Paddle Boat Competition
Post by: Big Ada on January 24, 2008, 05:41:04 pm

I am looking for ideas for a Club competition and spotted in Model Boats February Page 48 a possibility, does anyone have a plan or do you know who I can contact?.

Thanks,

Hello Len, from what I can view in the photos they would appear to be a very simple construction of a piece of pipe insulation foam formed around a sheet of styrene with the paddle blades also made from sgheet styrene, I suspect they'd be rubber band powered to minimise cost. That's my interpretaition of it but I'm open to other suggestions.

cheers
