Very nice. Love big pleasure boats. I have a Riva Aquarama that's about 37". It does not create a good wake. I've thought about installing some strips along the front to see if it will ride better in the water. It's a heavy boat. All of ur boats are super cool. I have six as of now. None are smaller than 36".

From what I read about the full size, her hull was patterned off the PT boats but in aluminum, she worked as a Hudson river commuter for the muckity mucks going from home to Wall Street. She was damaged in a storm and sold to a couple who wanted to restore. Was damaged Again and sold to another who only got to acquire with the promise she Would be restored, but the fellow lied and she was scrapped. Big loss for a beautiful vessel.

Hey Robert, trying to build something a bit like this, but custom design boat from scratch, i'm new to the hobby so i would like to know for a boat of this size and weight what components should i use, i would like the boat to plane but a bit faster than the one in the video, thanks in advance. cheers

Building a full wood kit vs a fiberglass hull kit does take longer to build but I think it can go together faster. Building any model is not difficult just very time consuming.

@@robertschmidtrcmodelboats6483 Yeah i can see why it would be time consuming, but i got time. But my father has been wanting to build a kit since he was a kid. But never had money to so now that i have seen some of these scale boats i think it would be a good gift to build together.

Sir if you remove a battery she will pickup more speed.

Great idea. I like the safety of twin batteries as I have an independent system for each motor and having control of each motor separately. It travels at a close scale speed I think and the maneuverability around the docks is awesome being able to control each motor on a separate joystick.
