Today's weather was great for R/C model boat running & sailing in our favorite water hole the Hamilton Bay .The real Edward Cotter is a fireboat based in Buffalo New York & is also one of the oldest fireboats in the world . Near the end I almost had a disaster where I just touched the Ferry boat because I use a I-Phone to record videos & also run the models transmitter & some times I get distracted .

"Ellen" is a Gaff Rigged Bristol Pilot Cutter model from Graham - Graham93 , is a Model Boats Website member and member of the Buxton Model Boat Club .
Graham started his latest project 6 months ago at the beginning of second lock down.
A truly magnificent working model example of engineering, woodworking, electronics perseverance and total dedication ! - I am sure all will agree !.

A vid of a few of us out at Towne Lake and Josey Ranch

Finally had a chance to do a test on Pilot 40 project that was my lockdown stay home project . Change the props to 50 mill.4mill.threaded & now I have right prop & left prop Replaced the Sabertooth speed control as it was to hard to control with my Airtronics transmitter used a standard Hobby King speed control changed the wiring terminal block to a larger size as the one I first used was to hard to put wires in it . I always have trouble with mounting so glued the motors in with some goop & there just fine now

MV Overchurch fully finished with passengers on board cruising on our local park pool
