    Finnsport 8500 project

    Hi all!

    This is my friends boat that we are building atm.

    here it is inside of VW transporter.



    It is only of it´s kind ever build, it once was at the lobby of Finnsport boat factory as a display model.(of the 8500 model,that is 8.5m long 1:1)



    This scale version is about 1.5m long and HEAVY! ,when we got the boat, it had some 35cc atv motor in it.

    Now it is being prepared for brushed electric for scale speeds and looks(graupner z drive/s )


    Scale pic with fastech!


    This vid shows the owner using proper tools to use with this job.



    (first few secs is from our other project ,fastech with z drive)

          Thanks guys, but it is not mine...sadly.

          It is only scale model of the finnsport 8500 ever made.

          My friend owns it ,I only helped him to build it(rebuild)

          It is large one...1.5 meters long and it could tow a real boat or carry a small person.

          It will soon have some nice upgrades

              It would easily carry 2 small dogs!

              You are welcome to come and drive it with the dogs!

              -so net time when you are in Finland...


              And we have another project going on also with the dude that owns the finnsport.

              Fastech with v-hull,power trim/tilt and power steering...
