George, Your kind words are very much appreciated, I actually very much enjoyed making the model with the conversion to R/C and I also now very much enjoy sailing it. It looks surprisingly realistic on the water and handles very well.

The 2mm shafts and 4mm tubes were ordered through a supplier in the UK who made the shafts and tubes to length, fitted them with bushes and also supplied the brass props and couplings.

If you ever want to get in touch with them let me know and I will get you their contact details.
