I sail at the Fleetwood model boat lake, but it is very rarely that I see any other model power boats (except for electric toy boats, that is).

If anyone has similar interests, please feel free to contact me - Happy boating.
Hi Parky,
I would very much like to swap notes on the the Vosper MkII - recently dug mine out of the attic that was started in 1972 - my grandson (5!) says it's about time I finished it. I managed to obtain some extracts from the original Air Publication and log book records from RAF Hendon - nobody else seemed to hold any records. Anyone else built or still building this model.
PS - Mine still has a working Remcon 12 channel reed R/C and Taycol electric motor!
