I was by myself trying to operate and videotape and only got two videos. I have yet to put it on a pond or lake, but in the small swimming pool it rode well with limited rock n roll. I am always sensitive to how a model rides in the water.

You can see the pool has a strong circulation current that is flowing in to the path of the model. It’s strong current caused the model to rock back n forth.

The model has a three bladed prop which drives it faster than a two bladed prop which in a crowded model boat environment could be seen as a benefit to avoid a collision.

These vessels were powered with 2 cylinder engines which produced a steady loud clanking sound and were not fast.

My model speed will be kept appropriate to this type of vessel.

My son-in-law printed the lettering for my model named for his wife and my daughter, Corinna Mae and added the name of the port to the stern.

The model now carries its name on the bow and stern . I am very pleased with the outcome.
