MODEL BOATS WEBSITE

I am really enjoying this site now. Although me it did take time to get in to it. Now there are a greater verity of boats. Bob

Been a member for awhile, but only recently been able to post, thanks to the webmaster, gained a lot of useful information from the site and am having a good crack (as us northerners say) with a couple of members.

I'm constantly amazed by the inventiveness of model builders when creating websites! 😑

Needless to say, I'll be back often!! 😁 (What can I say, I need ALL the help I can get!!) 😛

Love this website. Very easy to use and now is a main page on my browser. Cant wait til the app is fixed. Keep up the good work admins. Manythanks 😀

HI There

Bit of a newby to the world of Boating, but Beached here through finding building plans for a Vospers 46 Fire Tender.

Being a bit of a practical person I was considering building one for my partner as her father used to have one some years ago.

Hopefully this may be the place to assist in this over time.

HI all
Just a quick intro, I have come back to the hobby after 12 years. I have a collection of fast race boats and am about to start building a "J" Class destroyer

HI peeps,
Found this site via an ad in the july issue of model boats mag, glad I looked it up, its a good and fresh site with a wide spectrum of interests and abilities on show. I'm at present learning to sail my 'Phantom' yacht and between sailing sessions and when time allows I am working on a coaster in 1/48th scale based upon the models by design (ex metcalf) Pateke, I say based upon as I am converting her to incorporate aspects of coaster designs of the 50's and 60's, so therefore she is a freelance model, I'm trying to incorporate as much detail as possible, building the superstructure at present with full wheelhouse detail all scratchbuilt. I'm quite new at model shipbuilding but not new to model building, been plastic kit-bashing for 20 years ...........have interest in building fleetscales HMS Starling but as the Opossum as this was my dad's ship in 1954-56......if anyone has more details on this ship I would love to see more close up pics if poss!!!......all the best fellow shipmates!

Howdy!
Model boating is alive and well here in Texas. Most here like the hydroplane type, except me. My next project is the Billings Colin Archer. Anyone with experience with this boat? I'll have to post photo's of my steam powered launch.

HI Folks
Recently found this site, I have a modified Ready to run boat and I am currently building a RAF Crash Tender this will be a "long project" as it is being fitted in along side a Recumbent tadpole trike or two 😁
Main R/C passion is model aircraft 😎 and cycling 😋 , just added a 3ft6in trailer to the bike to get totally green transport and I have a solar panel at home charging a 12v car battery ( for charging models and rc equipment ) to make the hobby almost 100% green
regards emma
