    Great video, shame they no longer produce any of their boats. I still have a Spearfish new in the box waiting to be made up. I had a Spearfish back in the 80's with a Irvine 61 in her. She was great fun on the water.

My three latest aquisitions: a pleasure launch, a speed boat and a landing craft rigged out for the Vietnam war. The landing craft is ready to go, as is the speed boat (speed boats not my thing to be honest) but the pleasure launch will be a project. I intend to replace the upper cabin, strip the paint and maybe just varnish the hull, add some planking for the deck plus it needs all the running gear....should keep me busy for a while

    Your speedboat is an "Intercepter 650" and came in two versions, Ready to run with installed radio gear or as a bare bones and fit your own running gear and radio. I have the ready to run and has a decent turn of speed.

    Great job, for a scratch built model tugboat!
    Can't wait to see her Maiden Voyage.
    I hope her water canon is functional?
