1st Scratch built!
« on: April 19, 2006, 05:10:43 pm »

This is my first completely scratch built boat.  Construction is still in progress, have to get the electronics and motors installed.  Also my first military type boat, so thought I'd make something from the local area.  I'm so proud!  Can't wait to get it finished.

.....this one has a cool well-built rudder - could? have its origins somewhere on the Tyne? ;D ;D

Only if everything on the rudder is "xxxxx". I saw your 'three glasses of whisky' post somewhere else on the forum.

Hey Ron, I have even come across a write up of yours in Model Boats - the date of it was not as long ago as Dixon of Dock Green - but having said that - there is also an article in the same magazine by our good friend Colin Bishop and.........drum roll..........and the advert in the front of the mag is ancient - I could pick up a Monoperm super special for ?26 odd.

Evening All, thought I would give this the GENTLE TOUCH and apologise to Doc for hijacking his thread just like the PROFESSIONALS and take a SOFTLY SOFTLY approach, and? it just goes to prove there is NO HIDING PLACE from SPLOGER the self appointed Dixon of the Forum and here dedicated to our very own law and order of the Forum - YOU ARE NICKED MY SON :-? ;D ;D ;D ;D :D :D
