This is a raft that one of our members Noel built from bean cans soldered together powered by a blower motor /12v 9mah battery it is a model of his fathers full size raft made from 45gallon drums powered by a car engine it was sailed off Cresswell near Newbiggin by the sea it made headlines in the local newspapers as Noel can no longer join us at the lake due to his failing health I will keep it and sail it on his behalf and use it as a rescue craft

This is a tribute to Tommy for all his help sourcing materials
but you still have to swab them decks lad

more pictures with the sail decal attached
thanks to Tom 😉

This model took me 3 years. Copper plated the hull panel by panel. Even found a crew for her, then added an RC and took her to the lake.
She sailed well, but my enthusiasm to leave the gun ports open cost me dear. The water got in the hull and knocked out the RC, leaving her listing and drifting some way from shore.
Salvation came in the shape of a 10 year son of a friend, who strip to his underwear and swam out to rescue her!
Now she sits retired in a glass case.

this is my latest purchase a member of Tynemouth yachting club had it on e bay I have been after one for a while now the fun begins I will try & get a video of it on my attempt to sail it

HI All, E.Raymond is 36 inches long x 9 inches beam. She is scratch built, plank on frame with 3mm ply deck. I made her from the Cervia plans and enlarged them to 36 inches. She has a 540 type motor which I rewound with 80 turns of 30swg wire, for more torque. She has a 4 blade prop 60mm diam. and powered by a 6v 4amp SLA battery. I started the build last March, she's not quite finished yet, needs an anchor winch making and a set of tyres on the sides and other small details. I sail her at Holyhead Breakwater Park when I can.

This was my first Coble now sailing up the coast on the Druridge bay country park lake runs on a Johnson 600 motor powered by a 3c lipo

I have made the sails & starting to put them on winch servo fitted running line is on it runs around the top of the deck
