  1. First I drilled and cut open the scuppers and hawsers. This is where the first white cast iron parts come into use. Of course, they also had to be worked nicely first.
  2. Hello OK, here we go. The Britannia is 43 inches long and 9.25 inches wide. The weight will be around 18 pounds. Here are a few pictures of the kid. Here is a link I hope I did everything right. https://www.mountfleetmodels.co.uk/product/pilot-boat-britannia/
  3. Hello, thank you for the warm welcome. I will begin the construction report of the Britannia shortly. I have already started building it, but I am still at the very beginning.
  4. Hello, my name is Wolfgang, 60 years old but you can call me Wolle and I hope the translator works. I come from northern Germany near Hamburg. So you could say that I am very close to the water and the sea. I have been building RC models for more than 30 years and I have to say, I'm still not very good at it. But that's not what it's about, I just enjoy it when a bare hull slowly becomes a ship. The first ship was the Krappenkutter "Tön12" from Graupner. The ship is now over 30 years old and I still sail it, and I will never give it up. Then came the ocean tug "Zwarte Zee" from Billig Boats. Then I bought the ocean tug "OCEANIC" from Hegi at a flea market and restored it. It was in a pitiful state. Now it's sailing again. After that I built the whaler "RAU IX". I'm currently building the "Britannia" from Mountfleet Models. If there is interest, I would start a construction report here.
