Lafayette

Well at long last, after initial tank testing, ballast trials and failsafe testing , (with which the model behaved faultlessly) i have managed to get round and post some pics of her.

sailing today ( sun 15,may) at the local pond, a bueatiful day.......










and finally a picture of her submerged


and a nice HDML model boat, owned by my father, and recently come out of storage after almost 16 years !


it`s been a pleasure to build her, and a pleasure to sail. i would recomend this to any new comer to model submarining . a bit of help may be required in some places , but if the old rule of measure twice cut once is followed, then a very nice model is acheived.
