Facon 2 with Novarossi Mito 21M, CMB tuned pipe, tanks and running gear by Ian's Boats. First run at Brentwood lake. Running motor in on low nitro. This boat eventually won me the MPBA 2016 National Drivers Championship.
Great to see a model of this Old girl , I got to spend a day on the real one as an organised trip with our boating club . Was well worth the time and money , absolutely fantastic seeing all the inner steam workings . Very well done
Simply brilliant 👍👍👍
Highly appropriate soundtrack too
"Sound action stations Number One, Tally Ho"!!! 😉
Something went wrong here? This applies to David's brilliant HMS Sussex video that I just watched !? 🤔 But this vid is neat as well, 'cool vibes' to go with it 👍
