Looking very good. I would like to try my hand at making a good wooden RC boat kit. I once made a real boat as a bit of a summer project though lol

Looking good, nice and square.

The stuffing box looks nice and smooth also.

How are you going to finish it? Fiberglass? Epoxy?

I would like to purchase a sound module for my boat. Any ideas?

What do you mean sound module? Like an actual sound system or something else entirely?

I mean a device connected to the speed controller to generate almost real sound like accelerating ship engine or startup
