About this boat

I recently posted the above model and then decided to remove it from My Harbour so I could make some changes to the yacht varnish finish and then re-photograph and post again. But looking at the finish I am completely happy with what I first produced. I now posting the model again with the original text and photographs.

There is a saying - I used to be undecided but now I'm not sure! 😀

Being a beginner to RC model boats I choose Aeronaut's cabin cruiser Diva because I liked the style of a boat from around the 1960s and because I felt it would be easier to build as an entry the RC boat modelling. Although I have skills in building static display model ships I thought for me it would a safe option. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience of building the model. I believe that the build is all part of the enjoyment of the hobby.

    Hi those steps on the stern look a bit difficult! Having yesterday used similar steps to get out from a swim 6 inches apart is a good choice.

    The Aeronaut wood quality is excellent, I have seen where some have painted over the wood finish. There are Philistines everywhere!

    Well done Greg,

    This wonderful finish on a basically simple model shows the real satisfaction that can be gained from careful construction!!
