What is Comet a model of Joffre or freelance?
Comet started life as a model of Joffre
Terrific, lovely. Keep them coming. Rmb5*
🎉🎉🎉
@@MR.1912-Official thank you for your comment
Great video, what motor and what sized prop does the tug run?
You need a longer line so it can be fastened onto the forward towing post behind the superstructure.
Thank you for your comment, I may try that at sometime
@@jonathanwheeler5626 Specially with a heavy barge, it enhances the manoeuverability of your tug considerably.
I will definitely give it a go, many thanks
Nice lake in Autumn, the coming in winter and the leaves are falling. My favourite time.
Very nice 🚢⛵🚢🚢⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵⛵🚢🚢🚢⛵ boats enjoying the breeze
Many thanks for your kind comment.
@@jonathanwheeler5626 your welcome
Lovely boat!
Many thanks for your kind comment
Thank you for sharing your video! I had to subscribe to your channel. I became the 150th friend. Have a great day~❤
That’s brilliant, many thanks for subscribing. Glad that you liked the video.
That's a hip tow alright. 😁😁
Many thanks for your confirmation
Lovely detail!
Thank you for your comment
Sehr schönes Modell. Von welchem Hersteller ist das schiff.mfg Bernd
Great shots from the barge. Loved the Cutter. Thanks. Rmb5*
Glad you enjoyed it
Lovely video, what motor and size prop does your tug run?
Hi, thanks for your comment. The motor is a Torpedo 500 running a 2 inch, 3 bladed prop. I hope this helps
Some lovely boats there! What’s the post powerful tug you guys have at your club?
Thank you for your comment. I am not sure about the most powerful tug though. I must try and find out
@@jonathanwheeler5626 I only ask because I’ve just bought a large tug with a car blower fan motor and it has a huge 120mm prop! I haven’t had a chance to run it yet
That sounds impressive, should be very powerful
Bright photos on a dull day. Last of the Summer Wine at the end there. Lovely. Rmb5*
Lovely schooner indeed, she looks good from this angle
Lovely to see summer sails and sunshine in such a lovely spot. Rmb5*
Great formation of tugs, or is it fleet, or maybe flotilla, or perhaps group. Still feel the aviation equivalent, formation, is the best. Rmb5*
A lovely way of spending time. Relaxing and sharing the water with like minded people
The barge makes a super camera platform. Lovely schooner. Great video. Rmb5*
Grand video. Lovely models. Rmb5*
Many thanks!
Lovely shots and some grand manoeuvring by sail. Keep them coming. Ron
.Very nice, LIKE.
Thank you for your comment
What is this particular model? Cannot quite read the name.
Hello Hayden, this tug belongs to a fellow member of the Heron Model Boat Club in Herne Bay. It was built for him and he named it Helen R after his wife. I am not sure what real tug it was based on.
@@jonathanwheeler5626 thank you. I am casting around for a model to build from a kit and just searching out suppliers like MMM, Model Slipway and Orion Mouldings etc. Would be one for the Cory tugs, something ending in a ….garth. Few to choose from but tough to make a choice.
We have a few of those in the club, there is a short clip of Westgarth on here about 5 months ago. Unfortunately I don’t have any details of the build though. Good luck with your project.
Very nice example of the SunXX1 there
Thank you for your kind comment
@@jonathanwheeler5626 is the sailing lake at Memorial Park ?
Wo gibt's diese wunderschönen parks.mit seen .Leider läßt die Stadt Gütersloh ihren stadpark wo Jahrzehnte Modelle gefahren sind total verkommen. 😢
Hi, this lake is in the Memorial Park in Herne Bay in the UK
Thank you for sharing a good video with a nice boat!💯👍👍💯👍👍
Thank you for your comment
The yacht is an inchcape 45 build in wood in the early 60s.That is the yacht on which the model is based
Thank you for that information, I have often wondered if the boat was based on a prototype.
You could water ski behind that.
Probably if you were a Barbie or Ken doll.
I gather this is a harbour tug. Let's see it maneuvering a RC Tanker into dock
Ouch lol
Yep, just poor driving skills, fortunately the damage was not as bad as it looked.
Sorry about all the questions but this was a fibreglass hull in 1980's and always fancied this boat Looks stunning.
Is this a Fisher? Does it have a keel?
Hi, I am sorry but I don’t know if it is a Fisher. It does have a very small keel. I hope this helps
No problem, however this is an ABS hull so possibly not the boat that you remember.
That baby is beautiful! Did you build it yourself? What is the length? Can it handle heavy winds?
Thank you for your comment. I am afraid that I didn’t build her myself but I have made numerous changes. Including bowsprit she is about three feet long. She is pretty good in higher winds but I have to reduce sail as the wind increases
Vessels under sail have always been crowd pleasers. Nice video, too short but good. I have a 36” all wood construction cabin cruiser. Beautiful model. Turns heads everywhere she goes. I have nowhere close that would be large enough for a sail boat. But I do have a creek/brook in a park, five minutes away on foot. And the cruiser looks great on it. Just under a pedestrian bridge. The passers by get a Birds Eye view of the boat. Ah, a local pond would be great!
Thank you for your comment. Sailing boats on this pond usually get very positive comments from passers by and dog walkers. This pond is a half hour drive for me but well worth it to sail rc boats with a very friendly bunch of like minded people
Looks to handle well. What is it that makes sailing vessels so attractive?
I am not sure but it got a lot of nice comments from people walking by
Good to see you got it up and running Jon
Thanks Eric
Too weak :p You need a 4s battery, lol
I can’t control it on 3s. I have already destroyed one bodyshell 😂
Nice boats. How have you made the winches of the foresails sheet?
Hell Timo, with Patrice I have tried several different systems. Currently all 3 sails are controlled from one sail winch. On Bergen I believe that the foresails are controlled using a continuous line below deck. Patrice is having an extra foresail fitted that will probably be controlled from a separate servo. I am still testing at the moment.
@@jonathanwheeler5626 I'm in the process of making a new sheet winch on main and on the mizzen. I would have attached a picture, but it doesn't seem to work on this youtube. It has a reel release so the boom can turn freely. How many boats y have done? Nice hobby, And how have you done the hulls.
Hi Timo, Bergen is plank on frame and Patrice is a one piece moulded hull
Love the little crew figures!
Thank you for your comment. The crew on both boats are from a company called Mountfleet
Lovely!
Thank you for your comment
I've got an r/c battleship, but this is much more peaceful.
It is very relaxing
What beautiful boats! Great job!!
Thank you for comment
Cool! Is it a vintage or a re release? What is your combo?
Hi Eric, It is a re release, a couple of years old now. I recently rebuilt the entire rear end. The motor and esc are a cheap Amazon brushless setup running on 3s
Is it run with motor? Or by wind?
Hello David, there is an onboard motor that can be used when there is no wind or to head upwind but I only use it on rare occasions. The boat is one hundred percent powered by sail in this clip.
Nice. Evening viewers. Turn the volume down.🇦🇺👍🍺
Many thanks for your comment
Both are beautiful boats hats off to the builders.
What a beautiful boat well done sir.
Thank you for your comment
Excellent modelling,
Many thanks!
Beauriful 👍🏻
Thanks a lot 😊
Thank you for your comment. The only damage to the speed boat was that it needed a new propeller, unfortunately there was a fair bit of cosmetic damage to the trawler.
Unfortunate moment but indeed your vision was blocked. I hope there wasn't too much damage
