Here's the final part of the Trilogy....The Rescue.

The downed pilot has luckily drifted into calmer waters.

No photo-shop or superimposed images...I wouldn't know how to! David Blaine, eat your heart out!

Thanks to all who supported and encouraged me throughout the three builds.

I'll post up a couple or so pictures of each 'stage' in one thread to tidy things up, shortly.

Cheers.
Ron

no need for that old chap they're fine as they are....

Great result again. but you have a problem now. Now you have to build two more identical boats so you can show all three at once. LOL.
Three gongs on their way.
