    That looks perfect to me - no mods necessary.

    I guess it could be sealed up.
    The opening to the jet drives is small.
    You can't get your hands in!
    The opening which is under the 50 cal.on her stern.
    is meant more for working on the jet drives!
    To grease if you will!
    You could maybe spray some kind of sealer!
    But why have to fix a brand new boat!
    I was told I had gotten a leaky boat.
    As for her sitting low.
    It's just the design of the thing!
    As the jet drive pump water.
    the boat digs into the water!
    Don't get me wrong it's a great looking boat!
    I sent mine back, the wife wants me to get another one!

    its a"pibber" this is the boat martin sheen used in the film "apocalypse now", first job for me would be get that cardboard flag off and find a silk one that will move in the wind!

    good fun looking boat though, and the jet drives mean iy could operate in shallow water👍

Ready go sailing! Added a Robbe sail winch and HS-322HD. Chose not to make a continuous loop for the winch but decided upon a single elastic sheet line which keeps tension on the winch w/o getting twisted up under the spools.

An old favourite from my hovercraft phase. Runs really well on land and especially water. Although no reverse, it will auto-rotate on the hover, so when pointing in the desired direction on with the propulsion with the brushless motor and away she flies.
Realistic in operation. Looking a bit work worn now. Could do with up-dating with Lipo batteries which would make it even lighter. Seen here with lift motor running with skirt inflated. Steering
interesting, with twin air rudders. Must get some videos of the action.

    But maybe not before the motors are suppressed!? 😉

    It's a learning curve to operate a hovercraft.It's fun to watch them drifting in a turn and then trying to go in the direction you want them to go.Lots of fun.

    Workshop finished - lightly varnished. Very pleased. Started on Billings Barge. The Vietnamese Junk was purchased in Vietnam and built by my friend Gascoigne... he added the Panda!

Just fresh off the shipyard, this is my version of an American made Uniflite (firm died several years ago) "Salty Dog" 28. its name is a Puerto Rican slang for escapade. From the same firm who designed and made the legendary Vietnam War Patrol River Boat (PBR), this boat was part of Uniflite's recreational boats line. For this one, I utilized a fibreglass hull I found on Ebay and did the rest with Ethylene 2mm plastic sheets. it runs a 9.6v NiHm battery, a 30A Mtroniks controller, a 3-bladed 35mm M4 bronze propeller.
