Never ever owned a boat, thats what mates are for, borrow theirs. If i ever decided to own one, yours is it Lawrie. Its beautiful, know nothing about them  but it sure looks good and expensive.

Ha Ha, fooled you, it really IS mine, but not quite what it seems, maybe this will clarify!!
Being a bit naughty. :rolleyes:

Nice one Lawrie... we all walked in to that one  :clapping:

It IS blue & white, with a smidge of red thrown in . . .
😎  Always looking for the next corner.  😎

I am certain you build this  :clapping:

That's a kind of boat I want. Stuff it in my backpack, get on the 14, ride to a lake, and ... have a great relaxing time.

lawrie

Correct, I manufacture them!!

Another great day on the right side of the grass.😎

It can be, I manufacture kits for modelmakers to build,  its up to them if they wish to r/c them or simply display them, others just want to build & sell them on, either way, it suite me. :grin:

Cool Lawrie  :clapping: Got a web site showing these kits?

Anyone put a diesel engine in one of these?

lawrie

None of my models are suitable for diesel, but ok for electric, I DO have a website, but I don't think this sites owners would appreciate me  flashing  it around on this forum.
I started my little business in 1990, & been a member of this club ( in one form or another ) since 2002 & not splashed it around on here,
also,  I doubt if durt-great hairy bikers would be interested in soppy little models anyway, hence the low profile!!
