Well you did your best to sink her, if she was a speedboat she would have been well out of the way by now.
Is that the normal speed that she runs at?? _________________ Les - I would give up drinking but I am not a quitter.

My little Modeen was lest loose, runs really well apart from the need for solid fuel, I will sort that though.

Lovely little boat.
Is it R/C or is it a case of set it off and hope it comes back eventually?? _________________ Les - I would give up drinking but I am not a quitter.

It has radio, but I dont use it,
Just a case of set the rudder to stun and off you go. _________________ www.mfsteam.com the home of the MFtwin and replacement spares for Bowman, Cyldon and Mamod Steam Engines
