I call these orphans because the hull was started but not completed picked her up at the last club meeting in April . So we have decided that it can be converted into a club BALLOON BUSTER for the next show .Boats in the Park at the Woodward Ave. Steam Museum . I have until May 27th & 28th. Web Site Hamilton Museum of Science & Technology

I thought building a balloon buster would be a great project .Some members have sent instruction & rules concerning the models after reading rules decided to just make a runabout Open PDF & read rules . I think some of the rules seem a little out dated No reverse ,mechanical speed control etc. P/S there also was diagrams of rudder & placement of Balloon mount & bow spear thingy. ☹️☹️

About 1 year ago I posted a build Blog about clubs Balloon busters .Because there was so many boat build rules I gave up on that. But I had a hull and my mind still works fairly well at 74 I decide to make another tug boat I had some spare parts & a New Fly sky radio so last winter we built a no name model boat and ran her most of last summer at the pool in Burlington . I also just remembered that I didn't finish Balloon Duster build log That's no more. This model ran real well last summer and I'm hoping to run her again this summer. I think I'll call her Betty Bopp.
