No, I think I'll re-spray the antifoul beacuse there was abit of creep through the masking round the propeller shaft , but i'll wait til I get new stand built as the kit stand is plastic and won't stand the rigours of car travel to and from the pond.

No, it started to rain, go figure and after reprimanding the little guy for shoving it further out in the pool, I hussled it back inside and lost(again) one of the depth charge doors. Going to make new ones and glue them shut, they're a pain and keep breaking off.

I still can't believe it took a kilo of lead sheeting to ballast her to the waterline, now I have to smooth them all down and glue them in properly, so they don't shift about and create listing. I think it she'll need some fine tuning as far as ballasting goes, but its a major concern dealt with.

needle in a haystack, found the missing door for the depthcharge port, will still be re-doing them and having them permanently closed.

waiting for the hijackers to board... well burned the midnight oil....main deck fitted but having problems snugging in the sides, so have some slight gaps 1mm-1.5mm, any suggests....rc access will be the engine room casing, seen it done this way several times and seems the easiest option with less breakage for removing parts. and
