Title: Happy Hunter
Post by: swampbug on September 20, 2009, 07:28:10 pm
Hi Guys

Im thinkinf building the Happy Hunter for my next project, but with a difference lol  %%

I dont like the winches or crane on her and want to make some changes,

Up garde the crane, winches, life boats, etc

I dont even like the colour, was thinking red?

What do you think,

It dont have to be exactly the same does it i could even re name her?

I want to have as much working on her as i can, crane, winches, radar, lights, anchor's

What do you think?

 :-))

That's a cracking model of 'Hunter', always regret having to sell mine over twenty years ago, when I moved from Southampton to Dorset! <:(

Thinking about getting this kit. Would it be possible to fit this model with 2x Robbe Power 1000 instead of the recomended ones?

Hi Serr,  You would be spending good money on large motors when the Robbe geard motor will do the same job and give you more room for batteries
Cheers
