these are just a few of my granpas boats
now on display in a place called beale park near reading
all full operational and built to scale,
all were hand made around 30 years ago from anything he could find and all are operational via radio control
most of the boats are between 5-6ft long
the most impressive being the princess all portholes cut himself and swimming pools ect, will try and get some more detailed shots
he also made the waverly which my dad reconditioned 5 years ago and actually uses the paddels to propell itself
thought some of you mite be intrested
