HardRock, your Skipjack looks great!

If you can cut, drill, saw, hit things and swear a lot, you're well on the way to building a working model sub. -
Thanks. Its a wonderful shape - almost as pretty as an Alpha! And thanks to some very useful advice on trimming it now sits in the water properly and goes like a rocket.Comment

Thanks Mark.
I took my boats down to Gosford a couple of weeks back since then I have been editing all the video and pictures to put on a disc. This is a shortened clip of my Skipjack I redid for YouTube. I hope you enjoy it.
Cheers,
Alec.

Cheers Tom. The regatta for me was a blast!! I really felt like a pre teen kid with a new toy as I sailed my boats well below periscope:biggrin: depth and in clear water!!
My Skipjack, aka SSN-591 USS Shark has been out on a few adventures this year along with my akula so I put together a little video compilation of assorted footage from the smart phone and video camera to get this... :pop
Cheers,
Alec.
