Not even some of my Club Members know I did this, but long ago, for a friend I made a 1/800th scale USS Independence Aircraft Carrier. I don’t usually do ships that much, but this one came out pretty good for an Amateur.
I use to build ships. I once built the Bismark, and though to have some fun. So I floated in my pond, and then threw a rock at it. The rock hit on the deck, and it bobbed up and down. So I turn around to get another rock, turned back. GONE! The unsinkable Bismark sunk. It was a shame too, it was motorized. The guns moved and the propeller moved it along, at the same time.
In going to the NorEAstCon, they had a guy who built a Large Missouri. And I mean Large. It was about 6 feet long. And then he also had a Sub that was not in scale with the ship, but was Big and impressive as well. I missed it, but they had it in the Hotel Pool.
I have pictures somewhere of it. But that was a Cool RC Boat.
