Building an RC boat - the Chris Craft Corvette is finished!

After 14 months, the Chris Craft Corvette is finally finished. In this video the lighting is set up and a few final details are added. Then it's the maiden voyage.

    Been thinking about a boat kit after years of playing with RC cars. I have just watched this entire series in 1 sitting and you have totally convinced me that I need one of these. I really love the way you have paid attention to detail and the fact that you have custom made many parts. I think you should start a cottage business withe those light fittings etc because I'd buy some ! Thanks for your efforts

    Hello from Ohio , U.S.A. Your skill is amazing . I also build rc boats only I build the DUMAS PT Boats . I have ( 3 ) under my belt and number (4 ) on the build table. I have a bit of an edge in detail. I had family that was on [ PT 27 ] .He was the skipper and I was given ALL his photos of many PT boats. I put the photos to work on these builds ( a lot of gear on the deck ) you wouldn't even think of. My PT boats are both the pacific and the atlantic type. Keep up the good work.

    WOW...NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE. The figures are awesome and maybe it's just my over active imagination but the captain is dressed the same as the Skipper from Gilligan's Island. Coincidence ? I apologize for laughing at your first effort with the blond lady's hair but the second effort was genius. And that maiden voyage was fantastic, I had no idea the motor was that powerful and she could do that kind of speed. Marina turned out a beauty, well done mate.
