Model Question

I am really amazed at the PT boat models I have viewed at this board. It is great the amount of detail you guys put into these boats.
Just wondering, has anyone attempted at making a larger scale boat?Let's say Bass boat size.

Yes. How about 1/4 scale or 20' long! This is one of my favorites. This is a very nice build and as you can see you can plop yourself into her and take her for a spin around the lake. I'm not sure where this boat is today. This photo has been around for a very long time.

My friend Robert Voorhees has built 2 different large models, one being an 8 footer, and one a 15 footer that you can drive. If you E mail him, he will send you photo's. You can reach him at rdv71152@aol.com
