This boat was built in 1960 originally had a rc engine and fuel tank have removed all that much repainted the wood hull and next project is the motor and a rudder that much was missing

This is how far we have got my next test is a float test then on with the electric mounts

If ever a name was misled well as we say in this parts,Tis like this, all was well till we was in the water then we had water in from the prop tube and up forward thank goodness its a wooden boat
Meanwhile back in the workshop the prop tube was an easy fix the forward leak isn't that easy to get at so going to try coating fibre glass and see if that fixes the issue don't really want to repaint again do not understand it as everything was well stuck down my suspicion is the keel that a laminate construction am going to oz coat the whole inside of the boat

Well having rubbed down the keel and and found the cracked bit of wood joint dully re glued and now primed up ready for painting sealed the whole of the inside with two coats of Ozycote and painted over, so now all water tight
having repainted the keel to day one coat on when that's dry then on with the motor etc

I have gone with a 700 motor and, 60 amp speed controller and simple rudder servo and new rudder, fairleads in one side and mid deck fitted out

Refitted aft deck and inner cabin and installed cabin lights, mid deck bee fitted waiting on its captain in me paint shop and inner cabin lights and navigation lights fitted, Have had o make the first part of the windshield and its mid mast also deck fairleads fitted along with fenders
