- RowenCapitanoCannot recall the exact reason for choosing Wahine to model.
She was a very pretty ship and also built in the UK.
My friend is a meticulous modeler and vessel is a credit to him.
Has both bow and stern thrusters and a bow rudder.
He did write a article for Model Boats International when it was still available.Piaciuto da stevedownunder - TrilliumChief Petty Officer 1st ClassWhy did I build the 'Wahine'?
I can still recall where I was when news of the ship's sinking played out on TV. A few years later, my first job as a student engineer at then-AEI in Manchester UK was working beside the engineer responsible for the design of it's successor, the Rangatira's, main steam turbines. When I considered building a model of the Rangatira I thought the looks of her were spoilt by the funnel shape and, since it was almost a duplicate of the Wahine, I opted to build the Wahine.

PS. I have seen Rowen's models up close and his posts here do not do justice to the quality and detail that he puts into every model. Every detail is scratcbuilt and accurately constructed.

Pictures from the 2022 Edina Model Yacht Club "Parade of Boats" day event.
Our club has a "Parade of Boats" day every June. Club members bring boats to display, and there are scheduled events throughout the day. A lot of locals bring their lawn chairs and spend the day enjoying our boats. The two floating lighthouses are used during our two "Lighthouse Day" events, which go until dark so we can display our boat lighting.

- DWBrinkmanAmmiraglio di divisioneTrev,
I'm not sure. The boat is HUGE, about 6' long. The boat is an older build. I do know the owner, I can ask him at our next club meeting.Piaciuto da pressonreguardless - DWBrinkmanAmmiraglio di divisioneTrev,
When I originally said I knew who owned the boat, I was mistaken. However, since then I have found out who owns it. At our club's recent annual "Dry Dock" luncheon, I asked him about the power plant. He informed me it is an engine from an old Sears Craftsman chainsaw. No wonder you didn't recognize it!

Model Framing Jig
Re the:- Model Framing Jig from jbkiwi .
Seeing the time and effort other people put into their modelling hobby, and looking at the "build blogs" and forum comments on "Model Boats Website". I was prompted to share (with agreement) a couple of build (logs) blogs which would reach a wider audience via my youtube posts.
The intention is just to supplement and acknowledge ideas from all who share this common interest.
No monitorisation is received from this or any postings.

A recent evening at the local center pond ...
I got there late, but a few boats were still out on the water.
Video was taken by a friend from the deck of his Shelley Foss Tug.

Kraken & GPL 1000 at Mayhem 2022
Kraken, with a 29cc Tiger King engine, and a GPL 1000 with an OS21 on a gearbox on the lake... at the same time! Is that sensible? Mayhem 2022
Mine is an Aquacraft Ready To Run boat.
It is modified slightly from the "out of the box" original, but basically true to the RTR version.

PS I'd be glad to send any pictures you would like ...
