Steamboat
« on: April 18, 2022, 05:54:34 PM »
Hi, everyone,

the weather was very nice today and I wanted to take the steamboat with my little nieces. But unfortunately the remote control is defective. I guess I need a new one.
So there was a big ride in the dry dock. The captain was not pleased.
The boat has no role model. It was 23 years ago that I first encountered the subject of steam models. The machine was bought and only the boiler was built in-house.

Shame about the remote control, but that is a beautiful boat. At least you got to run the engine - always good to see engines under live steam.

Forging ahead regardless.
