gberger Posted September 26, 2018 Author Share #11 Posted September 26, 2018 Sadly no. I decided to just display it rather than play with it. The details are not compatible with tossing it about in the water. I do have a test tank video, though.

Omega1234 Posted September 26, 2018 Share #12 Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Hi Gene That’s totally understandable. I’d be quite wary of damaging the model as well. I just can’t seem to get the vid to work, though. Cheers.

Chuck Seiler Posted June 24, 2020 Share #16 Posted June 24, 2020 Throbbing engines, indeed! Back in the 60's, when I was a wee lad, we used to ride on an old PT boat converted for tourists...The Pink Flamingo. I still remember the engines.
