My Timmy 2
Since one grandson had a boat with his name on, his brother wanted on too! This shrimp boat became Timothy's with a guiding hand from grandpa when at the lake. Tim is four years old.

Michael (formerly Carol Moran)
My grandson Michael helped me build this kit last winter. We had fun researching existing tug boats of the era, and upgrading some of the details. After the bath tub test, I changed from direct drive to a 3:1 ratio motor to keep it running at a scale speed.

Northlight Clyde Puffer
I have just completed my Puffer and am quite pleased with the outcome. The components are quite good but do need a bit of fettling but this is what our hobby is about. This is my third Caldercraft build so I am used to their quality and sparse instructions. As usual for Caldercraft you need to have your thinking cap on as the A0 plan and the 'instruction book' do not match up but of course they do expect you to have a little bit of experience in model building. it has taken me about 6 months to build working on and off over this time. it has a large hull which is easy to house the motor, ESC, RC and batteries, etc. (I installed 2 lead acid 6 volt batteries, one on each side amidships) which gives stability and ballast. Being a large deep hull it needs a lot of ballast, even in its short length.I have only tested her in the big white nautical test facility at home so do not know how it will perform on our lake but hope to try it out on Sunday if the weather is set fair. Tried her out Wednesday and she sailed really well - maybe a little more ballast in the bow but not too concerned.

I recently acquired this lovely boat off eBay,...she cleaned up nicely, and runs quite beautifully since I re engined with a Torpedo 850, on 14 volts.
Now, I would love to know is this is a one off, or a kit?
The build quality and layout would suggest a kit, but what do I know?
I'm sure the massed wisdom on this site can provide me with a clue...
Overall length; almost 50"
Any ideas?
Brian.

- Dave MVice AdmiralHi BrianHi Brian The hull is very similar to the Tarpon produced in the 1960's, especially the four portholes on the raised deck. The cabin is different but this could be a later addition/modification. I did think it may have been a Dumas kit but I have scant knowledge of their range and was hoping one of our American friends would comment. It certainly looks the part and I hope you have many hours of happy sailing.

It is a design by John L Langford called Margaret and was published in a book of drawings from Brown, Son and Ferguson in Glasgow. I think the drawings are still available and I bought a set years ago- never got built! The hull was 48" long. Lovely boat. All the best, Ian
