About this boat

The scale model is of a 'Mid Stream Delivery Boat' based on the Ohio river - the large towboats moving goods up and down the river, radio their orders ahead to the Grocery Store, and this boat is then used to deliver the goods to the towboat which of course then doesn't need to stop!

Scratch built in 2011 from outline details found on the internet many years ago!
Has a system of 3 rudders, two ahead of the prop and one astern which allows it to almost spin on the spot!

Have not sailed it 'properly' yet - only tested on garden pond (Motor: Squires Mabuchi 385) (ESC: Mtriniks Viper) (9/10)
