I have been building this thing over the last few years. Its 12' long and weighs 900# full loaded with water.
Its really my own design cargo ship, with some consessions made to the hull for simplicity's sake. I pick what i like from looking at pictures of real vessels and incorporate them.
Its powered with a 24v scooter motor and chain drive, with a 7" propeller. it has 8-500gph pumps for ballasting and trimming.
I hope to be able to play with it this summer, after i get the big 1/2 scale V-2 rocket done! no room for both.
Here are a few picture, and the link to the full gallery is at the bottom.
