Lesro Sportsman kit, wood sports fishing boat 33'' in length, weight about 8lb. MFA 850 on 12v (10 NiMHcells 3.5ah) MTroniks 40amp esc, X50 prop. Built by Ian Gardner.
March 2010. I am now using 12 cells and a Graupner speed controller. I added watercooling too and the boat goes noticeably faster- but melted a fuse holder on first outing so I need to upgrade some of the wiring. There was also a bit of prop aerating on turns so might reduce the prop size.
The last photo is with increased voltage.

this nice looking tender is old now but still look s well in the water thinking of letting it go with a few other boats any body can tell me what they go for thanks russell its has a three chanel radio and water pump and nav light all working .

This was a Damage R/C Police Boat ( That is mass produce in the USA and can be found on eBay anyday ) That I converted into a fire boat .This is for display only. it is 21 " or 533.4 mm long 6" or 152.4 mm at it's widest point .Everything on it was put on my myself except the hand rails , air horn and anchor . The black on the deck is all real non-skid .This was a fun project to do for I never did work with anything like this or this large before . Most of my customizing and kitbashing is with diecast fire trucks .

this is my aerokit fire boat 46 inch fitted with a 600 motor 3 bladed prop 55 mm and a 12v 12 amp battery was fitted with a petrol motor when I got her for A£35.. all the top has been rebuilt the 2fire hygents work very good 2 mrtrs of water either side all lights work a good turn of speed but I can get 2 1/2 hrs on the lake the two men are not right but look ok for 10 p each at car boot gordon

Two Aerokits FPL's 'salvaged' from e-bay. First outing following restoration. each fitted with 400 size motor running on 7.2v. and controlled by a single Spektrum DX5e tx (one on each stick).

I have rebuilt this from a damaged ex IC model. Borrowed a plan from a club member and managed to reconstruct the missing bits. Originally used a fast electric car type brush motor with 7.2 v nicads. Worked ok but nothing spectacular. Recently ventured into brushless and LiPo. Tried an inrunner but ran far to hot and not veryt fast. Changed to an Outrunner (mork torky apparently) and nearly took off! (it is a seaplane tender but should stay on the water!) The LiPo is 11.1v 2800MaH. I use a Graupner Ultramat 16 charger, don't use other than a dedicated LiPo charger and ESC. Battery misuse can result in pyrotechnics, so beware. initialyy tried a two blade racing prop but have changed this to a 29mm 3 blade brass prop to slow down the speed. I have also added more lead and will advise the final weight once I have tried the model on water. I sail with Crewe and District MBC at Boundary Park, Nr Knutsford in Cheshire.

Can anyone tell me what boat this is?
I think its a modified Aerokits fire boat or Sea queen,
The deck is different because it steps down, the cabin looks to be modified, the hull is all fibre glass with wooden bulkheads.
Nice 10cc Merco engine.
Will upload more recent pics as the pics are from about 18 months ago, I've since started re building the boat to sail then in future sell.

Fishing cruiser built from kit by Dumas- no longer available I believe. Powered by Graupner Speed 500 on 7.2 volts with MTroniks 15 amp ESC. Travels at brisk walking pace so not exciting, but nice to watch. Has a big boat feel even though only two feet long.
There's a video of Scoter on the water.

Two launches restored and sailed by Kalamunda. The boats are powered by 400 size motors and are shown on their maiden voyage at Goodrington in Torbay.

Lesro Sportsman kit built from new with MFA Torpedo 850 and 12v NiMH battery sailing at Goodrington.

Scoter was built from a Dumas kit ordered from America. it is a planked hard-chine boat reperesenting an East Coast fishing cruiser, She is 2 feet long with a Graupner Speed 500 motor running on 7.2 volts through an MTroniks 10A ESC. The crew are from George Turner Models, 1:12 scale resin figures.
