Le Zenith...Renamed Cheryl for personal reasons
My model of Soclaine (MGS) Built in 1985. Trawler kit originally called le Zenith 1/24 Scale. My name change is in memory of our beautifull daughter who went to heaven just over four years ago. Anyhow model is beautifull on the water powered by Como MFA 919 Series Electric Motor.
All power is from a lead acid 12 volt battery,lights, running gear . Using a simple set up of two channel Planet T5 Radio.
I sail the boat at Rutherglen Boat Club Glasgow. The weight of this boat is really awesome and I kept adding lead untill it was nearly Impossible to lift,must be getting soft in me old age.. 👍 lol Deck crane is made from odds n ends and an addition..IAN

'HOWE' GY177
Built this year 2012 by Colin Burrows as a static model. Bought from him to make RC on 2.4. and currently fitted with a 600 motor that is too powerful, advise that was received from a fellow modeller, I am awaiting for a smaller unit to arrive to make it more authentic as it resembles a power boat rather than a trawler. Am also building a speed boat but have put out a request for wiring information as I have already blown up one speed controller!! lol.
I belong to a recently formed club sailing on the lake a Queens Park, Mablethorpe, Lincolnshire. New members would be most welcomed.

- Dave MVice AdmiralRealistic looking model. Low speed high tork motor would suit this. Model Motors Direct do a 555 which is excellent for most scale boats. What ESC are you using?
You can post details of your club in our Model Boat Clubs section, which should help any prospective members find you. 😀 - HoweGY177Petty Officer 1st ClassHi, I am using a Perkins 5510135 Marine 50amp esc and am awaiting a 25mm diam 300rmp motor from Hongkong to replace the Johnson 600 that is already fitted. it's a suck it and see job as I have no experience in the boating field my previous hobby was flying electric planes with lipo's and brushless motors. Going to fit proportional steam simulator, fog horn and whistle, have already fitted sound generator representing the 3 cylinder steam unit that would have been in the real thing. if you have any experience in the electronics field I would welcome help on esc requirement to power twin graupner 700BB Turbo motors.

Billing Polar Trawler
I have had this boat for about 5 years, so thought that it would like a day out. Sailing at Cwmbran August 2012. its a Billing Polar Trawler, not now made but at about 32 inch long is a managable size. Twin 385 motors 35mm 3 blade brass props. and running on a 7.2 volt 3700 mAh NiMh viper speed controller and a 2.4 Ghz RC it will potter around all morning on one battery. I originally ran it on a 6Volt 4Ah Gel Cell and 27 Mhz setup.

- jelley_babyChief Petty Officer 1st ClassHI Rob if you have an email address that I could use I have photos of the boat, a friend at my club is also restoring one so I have just taken some photos but I could take some more of the areas that you require easily, sadly I do not have a plan myself as my polar was bought on Ebay at least 5 years ago and I had to work from a billing catalogue photo and some photos from old Model Boat Magazines. Hope to hear from you if that will help.

Thanks again Rob

billings boat polar trawler
whilst being off work with cancer have spent three months building my polar trawler which I had to remake a lot of superstructure with plasticard due to the old ply delaminated. it has twin screws powered by two 400 motors and 40 amp esc and 6v sla. I think she looks quite good

LE ZENITH
This is the latest of my builds a french deep sea trawler LE ZENITH .We renamed this model in memory of our daughter who sadly passed away two years ago breaking many hearts.
The ship was a delight to build but has still some electrics to complete..This is my weak point having blown up two speed controllers previously through my inexperience.I have just my speed control to wire and we are ready for a test run when the weather is a bit kinder

- steve-fb40Able SeamanHello Basher, I have just registered on this site only minutes ago and Immediately saw your post. To me it is appropriate that you posted it on my birthday, 10th March thus my response. I admire the fact that you renamed the ship in a memory that is precious to you,a very sincere thing to do.Good luck with getting the ship into a fine working order. Best regards, Steve Heward. steve-fb40.
