Memorial Day RC boat float
 
I went to my second "RC boat float" at the local RC scale model boat club float.

I brought PT-323 out to terrorize the sea lanes:haha:. I sailed in my first course navigation competition:ahoy:. I did okay for someone who had no idea what to do.

IJN Minekaze.:rock: Being a PT-Boater, I felt it was my obligation to chase this around the pond. Sadly, the owner only sailed her for about 5 minutes and my on board camera had died.:shifty: So no videos of trop attacks on Jap tincans.

Great pictures, Jason. Thanks for sharing.

I like the sailer. As I told you on the phone, my friend Rocky once build an RC trireme. The motor actually drove a cam that made the oars work properly.

Great shots Jason, reminds me of when I was in the hobby about 25 years or more ago.

That is some great stuff Jason. Your PT boat looks fantastic!

Is that a functioning forward deck gun on the Minekaze?

I believe so. One of those BB gun boats.

Wonderful to watch. I have an unbuilt New Jersey scale 1:350. That just await to be build. Every parts that had to be painted is painted.

I wish a division of those 4 battleship Iowa class in scale 1:200. But they are hard to find. But I really doesn't have the money to buy them I have my dream to fulfill.
