Looks great Bob. Like I said before, I can't wait to see what you have next for us.

You Know "D"- I was thinking of doing a simple boat like a Glasspar G3 with an Evinrude 75... . In 1/12 it would be only 14" and since I've got this simple outboard thing down it might be fun and still afford the time to take care of the honey do list!!

This is probably as good as it gets- the end of a work in progress...

Fine tuning the motors and props- closer to or at a scale 60kts!

Bob, just gorgeous! Dash looks great. All those working hatches, nice. Well thought out interior.

Thanks Ken, although seeing your "The Big Marie S " build makes me consider building a wood boat next!


Here's a picture that I hadn't posted on NDF - "1:1 vs 1:12"

This Build is soon coming to a close and many people have asked as to how its coming. I did a quick video to show off fit and finish and also the many operational items on board- Take note of the working NAV screens just past the middle of the video-BG

Update:
I went with a tuna tower. It easily and completely removable with the aid of rare earth magnets (alien technology) and operational outriggers...
Nest step:
Graphics-I'm trying to gain courage...the placement of decals and vinyl graphics always makes me nervous.

Exceptional build Bob!

Going over your build I sure see some really fine building techniques, and a special attention QUALITY craftsmanship. One to be very proud of for sure!
