Guys 4 more things to do before getting wet.
1. Fit the cockpit windows 2. repaint the deck 3. fit the electronics 4. The fittings ( I may launch it first and then put on the fittings) I am going to deal with the windows and the deck today and then I will have to find an idea on how to prevent the motor from moving around itself. |
Cockpit windows done. in two hours I will start painting the deck.
|
Still waiting impatiently :D

The good thing is that because I am painting it at evening it will have dried 'till next morning so when I get up I can start work on the electrics. |

there were leaks at the point were the shaft goes through the hull. |

"Bravo" for your great (and fine) work, convoy hunter. But it's maybe largely time to replace your bath-tub with a swimming pool ... :D |

Nice to see it wet at last, just on the outside would've been better though. ;)
Keep it up! |
still leaking today.:damn: :damn: :damn: :damn:
We will see tommorow if the leaks will stop. |
You need a silicone shaft seal...measure the dimater of your propellor shaft and purchase one from your local hobby shop.
|
