Hi Mathieu Thanks for the message, sorry for the late reply. Covid has made things odd and I am just back in the Netherlands. For the winch I used one off the shelf. Seems OK.. and its mostly hidden. So Update,,, The boat is finished trials and work great. Tows me on the double Kayak no...

yes Bootjebouwer this is prefect! Thanks so much

And I still need some advice on decals, who builds/ prints custom ones in the netherlands? I am going to change the name and need new names made for the bow and stern. As well as Plimsol and draft marks. Thanks Dylan

WOW great build! beautiful details.

So Its been too long since an update but here one is. I need to still add the towing winch and reverse the running lights, it seems I built the house upside down and made a pretty rookie mistake. And the aft deck needs some clean up, as well as rigging for the boom that will allow the towing...

Progress...

Thanks Klass! That helps a bunch Im not sure if I am going to go that route or build anchor pockets like we have on yachts.. We will see shortly. Thanks Dylan

I am looking for close up pics of the anchors and how they are supposed to go thru the hull on this model? Any help out there? Thanks Dylan

Wow Klaas beautiful ship. Congratulations! What is the motor? Dylan

So work continues The electronics are going in and its quite a bit. 4X speed controllers, 1X smoke machine, 1X sound machine.. Still have to set up the towing winch. Wth all of this the deck will have to be made to come off with out too much difficulty. Anyway pictures I hope in the correct...

Hello Again Klaas and Steampump thanks for the advice. I would like a bit more advice.. 1) Custom decals for names, can anyone recommend a supplier? 2) Best charger /battery type connector. I have the deans ones on the batteries but can change. What is the best one? 3) Radio controlled...

Shoot, the pictures are upright on the laptop. I have even rotated them not upright on the laptop to see if they end up the right way here.. but no. I think its the format of the picture, for some reason it does not want them in portrait but in landscape. Its saving them here that they get...

So lots of work but it really does not look like much! Port holes, all in back deck built with all the bulwarks, bow thruster in and faired, water line on. Masts repainted as they were a bit too bright. Now that the hull is done I can put the motors in and start the wiring... lots of...

Meno thanks for the kind comments. Hope your world is great. Dylan

Todays fun.. The shaft flexible couplings showed up finally! So the engines are placed in, not adjusted just for getting the shaft length correct and position of the battery pack. I tight inside the hull.. and there is a bit more equipment to go. I dont think we will need much ballast. But...

Color Sample.. I think I am way to "bright" on the green still.. Dylan

So the build continues.. Played with the air brush today on the green areas.. air brush good, paint color not good.. Looks like another trip to the shop for darker paint. ( I know its sideways,, not sure how to fix) Anyway this one will be painted in foundation maritime colors... so a bit...
