Billing RNLI Waveny Class

Recently picked this up from our club sale at the lake and made a start. A quick resume so far: checked all was complete 👌, previous owner has already made up the prop assembly but used slightly larger size than the original ones which were still in the kit. This has resulted in me having to ever so slightly raise the shafts on their mounting struts so that the propellers clear the hull. Not sure on size of motors yet, will be working on that alongside the servo for the rudder etc with the space restrictions and access. Have been looking at some videos of other people's builds and sen that they'd cut out the stern cabin to allow access to the rudder servo and also made the cockpit removable for access to the motors, esc, etc plus the "bulkhead " which the cockpit would normally have been glued to had been partially removed to again give access. So this has been carried out. Along with spraying the hull and partially the deck, cockpit is also work in progress.
